  • Computer Networking, 3rd Edition, Kurose/Ross

    The price was great and the content of the book is the same. However the difference between the Chinese and American versions of the book lies not in the content, but in how it is presented. The U.S. version has a great deal more graphics and side bars with important information separated out from the text that the Chinese version does not have: the Chinese version has information embedded within the in-line text. This sometimes can make it difficult to find information that is normally easy to find in the U.S. edition. Can mean the difference between an A and B in the class, as I am finding. Classmates are having an easier time finding the information within the text for this reason.

  • Great Book, and good investment

    Great Book for Study or Reference. One can use this book if they are beginning a career in Networking, or if they are already working in this field. It can be used for Reference. I understand that there are a lot of books available to help you in this field, however purchasing this material on ebay will afford you some great savings on Retail.

  • Excellent textbook: A Top-Down approach

    An excellent book for graduate students of networking area! As I know, this book has been selected as the textbook for CS, EE and Computer Engineering students in many Eng. schools. Moreover, it is also a pretty good reference book for self-study in networking.

  • Great!

    The product is great!!! Just don't like to enter a password just to get into my the manual. Other than that it is a great product. Speedy service.
