5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent study material, 8 Mar 2005
By Mark Aitken - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I used this book to help me pass my degree. It gives a good insight to several topics, all in depth. You will learn about the Internet's underlying technologies (routing, TCP/IP, ATM), client server, transmission types and media, the OSI model, parts on network security, data encoding, and more besides.

I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys having a deeper knowledge of the things taken for granted, i.e. your network. You will be hard pressed to find a more comprehensive text.
