Summary: Good book, but Ms. Dean needs to refresh herself on OSI
Comment: The book has gone into great detail, but as someone who has adopted the Cisco doctrine on OSI this book misses the mark. Tamara Dean goes into detail explaining what happens at each OSI layer yet gets confused when it comes to the Transport and Network layers in Chapter 2. According to Cisco Semester 1, segmentation, sequencing, and acknowledgment are all part of Layer 4 -- Transport. Network, layer 3, deals with IP addressing and path selection/determination. Cisco makes sure to keep the functions straight. I hope in future editions Ms. Dean does repeat herself by blurring the OSI lines. We as IT students have to rely on professional technical writers to give us the right information so we can achieve the knowledge necessary to not only achieve certifications but also apply what we learn in our professions. If there is one IT job, in my opinion, that doesn't exist, but should, it would be a "QA technical editor." Someone simply to read books like these and make the necessary corrections (typo's and such) in cooperation with the author BEFORE publication of multiple copies. IMHO.

Summary: Good Material, Comprehensive
Comment: I used this book to study for the Net+ Certification Exam. It has everything that was covered in the exam. Good book; well written and organized. The exam is tough, I recommend reading the book cover to cover (except chapter 13 which doesn't seem relevant).
