Very text book like. Big book with a lot of information, but if you have a droning teacher who lets you know how confusing this book is, you are likely to believe it. I love the diagrams, but the points are not very clear. You have review questions which you cannot be sure how to answer them because the text book does not define it clearly enough. The use of bullet points, italics, shading is used, but not like most text books that are forthright with the point. I can only assume that the book is for Security professionals ALREADY in the field, and want to study for an exam, and unfortunately I am entry level into Information Security.
This book is listed on the publisher website for over $140, so it's nearly one third the price. The chapters are listed exactly the same so there is no missing information. Overall it is a very good deal, you cannot even get the ebook version for cheaper than this. Highly recommended for students who cannot afford to pay roughly $150 for a textbook for every subject.
I really needed this book for my class in Information Security. All of the other book sites that I've been on, the price of this book was too expensive for my taste.
