3.0 out of 5 stars non-geek guide to network design solutions, January 25, 1999

This review is from: Network Design Essentials (Paperback)

This book is a great introduction to network design for non-technical folk. It covers design, operation and maintenance in plain easy to understand English.

If you want technical information this is not your book. If you are trying to explain basic network design to non-technical management or students this is your book.

1.0 out of 5 stars The worst technbical book I have ever read, November 27, 1997

This review is from: Network Design Essentials (Paperback)

I have rated this book with a 1 because there is no zero in the list. The content in the book is so essential as useless, writings repeated througout the book with concepts that are most common sense than useful technical literature. It took me one day to read it over after giving it up in my library. It has nothing to do with the pompous title "Network Design Essentials" and has little or no network design concepts, not even "essentials". I am really very dissapointed with this book and especially whit Ed Tittel from which I have read another books from which I have obtained what they seemed to offer and teached me a lot. Sorry but that is what I think.
