Summary: Review of GPRS Demystified
Comment: This book provides a good summary of GPRS from many points of view, and generally lives up to its cover billing. It provides a broad overview of GPRS, with short chapters written by industry experts.
For those seeking a detailed technical understanding of GPRS, this book is not for you -- the "technical" chapters are very high level. But for those wanting to get up-to-speed quickly on the "whole GPRS" (from applications to roaming to business issues to...), it's a quick and mostly well-written and well-edited read.
There are a few technical errors (e.g. HSCSD was not introduced in GSM in 1993) and some data inconsistencies across chapters (not surprising given the format) The chapter sequencing is also a bit odd in some cases, making a sequential read-through somewhat disjoint. But the index is complete and most readers will learn something in every chapter.
Overall, the book achieves its intended purpose quite well, and most authors have a slightly humorous style which is as gripping as the topic allows.

Summary: GPRS Demystified
Comment: GPRS Demystified is a very good read. The chapters are short with intros which define the overall content of the section. I found most parts of the book to be insightful with none of it downright boring.
Overall, I rate the book four and a half stars and believe it will appeal to those wishing to better understand the GPRS service concept. It is a soup to nuts overview of GPRS by chapter writers which use various styles to tell their part of the GPRS story. Interesting stuff.
I learned a great deal by reading GPRS Demystified and highly recommend it to those wishing to gain an understanding of this new cellular technology service.
