This review is from: Web Security for Network and System Administrators (Paperback)

No one should waste his money on this book for the follwoing reasons: 1. It has no in-depth coverage of any networking subject. 2. In addition, both the textbook and lab manual are obsolete. 3. All of the subjects covered in this book can be found on the internet for free.
