Summary: Good broad survey
Comment: This book is a good broad survey of current directions in networking products. It is a practical guide to options available to today's network administrators. The length and content are good. The order of chapters and sections is good. The book is very up-to-date with the latest industry developments presented clearly.

Rating: 1
Summary: Waste of Money
Comment: This book attempts to give an overview of Building Switched Networks. It might succeed in doing just that if it were not so poorly written. Sentence structure seem to be lost on this author and his editors. If only I could get back the time I've wasted muddling though this book, I'd be a very happy person.

As to the technical competency of the book, the author is definitely buzzword 2.6 compliant. However, the meat just isn't there to back up the statements. Perhaps I've missed it. Perhaps the meat is cleverly disguised in the poor grammar and writing style.

Rating: 1
Summary: buzzwords only
Comment: I found this book useless. The author obviously knows all the buzzwords but very little technical detail.
