Editorial Reviews

Review
It certainly deserves recognition as one of the most detailed texts on local area networks.

For people already familiar with the subject and wanting a quick reminder of a specific topic, this is given in a fairly readable style.

...people seeking information on a point of detail will find this a good reference text.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very informative, very wordy, August 1, 2000
By A Customer
Bought this book for reference for some software i was writing. The book is very thorough and covers anything and everything you need to know about LAN technologies. Starts out very general and explains the history of networking and the standards that support it. Goes in depth with LAN technology and then continues to give an overview of upper level protocols and even cabling.

I suppose my only critique is that the book tends to be a little verbose as the authors frequently use convoluted sentence structures which slow down the reading.

Overall a very useful book.
