Summary: I got more than I bargained for!!
Comment: At first I was disappointed. I expected this book to follow the customary Teach Yourself format, which includes lots of hands-on exercises. But this book is for reading, not for sitting at your computer and doing some TCP/IP utilities. I realized that Casad was truly an expert (12 books on networking) and that I had a very nice, accurate, 414-page overview of TCP/IP (broadly defined): network access layer, Internet Layer, Transport Layer, and applications layer (HTTP, HTML, SMTP, SNMP).
So the book served me well. I have a very broad technology background including system administation and software development and have set up Windows 2000 networks from scratch including Active Directory and DNS. Now, if I need a quick refresher, I have a good reference that explains the TCP/IP basics. The book will stay on my shelf for a long time.
This is one of three or four books that nearly all system administrators and developers working with TCP/IP platforms should read. Very experienced architects and developers will not find this too easy. For network professionals of course this is only a primer.

Summary: Amazing book for all ages
Comment: Im 16 and an obsessive compulsive computer hobbyist, my friends keep bugging me to teach them about computers but I wasn't quite sure how. I just told them all to read so they bought books too advanced for them. I was in B&N and found this book, covers protocals, the TCP/IP layers, different kinds of servers (DNS, MX, NS etc.), heirarchial IP addresses and domains. Tells exactly how computers communicate in fairly easy to understand terms. A few typos but an excellent book. My friends dont bother me anymore, they know where to go on their own from here =)

Summary: Great intro to TCP/IP that is easy to understand
Comment: FIVE STARS AS AN INTRO BOOK TO TCP/IP
Before going to any class, or reading any Cisco book or the like, I'd suggest buying this book. If you want to learn about TCP/IP quickly to prepare yourself for greater things this is it. Looking for a first book on TCP/IP - this is it! I have been a network manager for 16 years and this is the book I suggest as the "getting you started book". Actually, if you learn what is is this book in 24 hours of time spent you will sound smarter than many already!!! It gets to the point and quickly. It is a pleasure to read and an easy book to read too. The author purposely does not go in too deep or off to tangents, keeping to the goal of the book - get you started fast. So, as I said, if you looking for your first TCP/IP book buy this one.
