This exclusive, one-volume guide concentrates on the basic technology behind the Internet. And unlike technical dictionaries, it makes terms and protocols more useful by organizing them according to what they do--and accompanying them with in-depth descriptions.

But is it accurate?,
By
This review is from: Internet Standards and Protocols (Paperback)
Following is the review I left on another web site: So far I found 2 errors which MS confirmed: page 4, definition of UTP; and, page 17, max segment length 10base2; these are the errors I caught with my limited knowledge; my faith in the accuracy of the book has been undermined. I find this frustrating because I was looking forward to reading this book; I am now afraid to commit to memory anything I read within it.

A Good Overview,
By A Customer
This review is from: Internet Standards and Protocols (Paperback)
If you're not looking for an engineering text - but rather something that explains in broad terms the functioning of internet technology, consider this book. It provides a clear, no nonsense overview of most of the important concepts. It can function as a jumping off point for further more specific research.
