I bought this book for my classes on Networking. The content of this book covers a lot of information about basic of networking. The text is easy to follow and does not require special skills from the side of college student. However, it covers too much topics in nuts-and-bolts detail. Student might get overloaded with information. Exercises at the end of the chapters are very useful and helps reflect on the chapter. Overall, nice book to have.
I had read that sometimes the internatinal version would be in black and white and the paper could either very thin or of poor quality (e.g. "ground wood" similar to news print). The pages are color The paper quality is good.. I would definately buy another international version book from this publisher. I've just skimmed over the book, but it seems like a quality text book for learning about networking..
- Great text book, did the job it was suppose to do.I use the book for university, it made understanding the network environment so much more easier than using Google, a worth while investment for a cheap price. although its a bit of a thick text book, everything is categorized and its very easy to find the topics you are looking for.
I tried to register online with the student access code. But someone has already registered. It made me a bit frustrating. There's some wrong damage on the cover of the book, not the bottom of the book. But it doesn't not prevent me from reading. So the price is reasonable comparing to the U.S. edition.
This vendor was a big lier where he has put the original book cover page picture instead of the international edition picture, which make you think that they the same. I got a book with different cover picture from that in the website, and I found the pages no are different. also, I found the exercises no are in differen order.
international edition got different exercise problems. this would be a problem if you are assigned problems from the non international edition the rest of the content seem to be the same.
Good book for network studies. Well structured : from top layers protocols to physical links between computers. Well described with lots of figures for each chapter. Some very specifical things may not be detailed, but the book covers all the need of academic studies.
Arrived before expected time. Easy and simple to understand. Very useful in the understanding of networking. Samatex.
Not only is this book informative, it's also actually really fun to read. A textbook with personality! Who knew?
This is a very nice book and full of information too. Well worth the money. It covers everything from the top to the bottom of networking.
