4.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate summary of Packet Communications, August 27, 2000
By 
Sam Drummond (Perth, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Packet Communication (Hardcover)
This book is a great introduction into what will be the wireless data communication protocol of the future - GPRS. I recommend any one working in the field or looking at starting out grab a copy of this book for reference now and in the future. I just started working in the field myself and found it a great start to the complications of protocols.

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the few dissertations available on Amazon.com, August 21, 2005
This review is from: Packet Communication (Hardcover)
During an interview with Halley Suitt in 2004, Bob Metcalfe reminisces that in May of 1972 when he defended this thesis, Harvard rejected it and he failed. He was depressed about it at the time but points out with some satisfaction that it's now one of the few PHD thesis' available on Amazon.com. You can hear the interview at http://www.itconversations.com/shows/detail200.html. This discussion is at about the 9-minute mark.
