Product Description
Product Description
Building on the successful top-down approach of previous editions, the Fifth Edition of Computer Networking continues with an early emphasis on application-layer paradigms and application programming interfaces, encouraging a hands-on experience with protocols and networking concepts. With this edition, Kurose and Ross have revised and modernized treatment of some key chapters to integrate the most current and relevant networking technologies.
Networking today involves much more than standards specifying message formats and protocol behaviors—and it is far more interesting. Professors Kurose and Ross focus on describing emerging principles in a lively and engaging manner and then illustrate these principles with examples drawn from Internet architecture.

A good book. Helped me gain more of an understanding of computer networks for a computer science degree. I would recommend. I would also recommend Tanenbaum's latest computer networking book also. Get the two if you can afford it or borrow from a library.

This book was purchased for my son's university course.
He assures me it is a very good textbook, which has proved very useful in his degree course.
