Summary: Not as good as I thought
Comment: The book covers a LOT of topics but it assumes too much. Even on Chapter 1 the author discusses topics that I didnt know about. Name of the book is "Network Tutorial"; bad name. I would call it Networks Unleashed. It also seems a bit outdated to me, the latest edition was released in Jan/2003, yet there is too much talk about Windows 3.1, OS/2 and NT. Linux and XP are rarely mentioned. I dont recommend it, its good but not worth the price tag.

Summary: A "user friendly" introduction and reference
Comment: Now in an updated and expanded fifth edition, Network Tutorial: A Complete Introduction To Networks by Steven Steinke (with the assistance of the editors of "Network Magazine") is a "user friendly" introduction and reference to network technology, written especially for managers and executives seeking to update their knowledge on the latest challenges of evolving network infrastructures. Individual chapters cogently address such topics as physical layer protocols, data-link protocols, network hardware and software, security and backup systems, and much, much more in this involved and extensive resource filled with diagrams and extensive description.

Summary: Complete Guide!
Comment: Excellent for newcomers or if u want to get up to date in networking technologies. Is a good comprehensive guide that Starts with the basic precepts of networks, the book explores protocols, hardware and software components, and the unique jargon of networking. Concepts are explained clearly and simply, without assuming an extensive understanding of network internals. The glossary provides a quick reference for unfamiliar terms. Among the many topics new to this fourth edition are: wireless networks, cable modem systems, virtual private networks, IP security, asset management, and XML. Other key subjects include improving network performance, anytime/anywhere access, and interoperability.
