Barrett offers you a nice coverage of the most common types of computer networks existing today. The book is written mostly for the electrical engineer or perhaps the computer scientist. There is a nice, easy start with the basics of wave propagation. Nothing that a physicist would call deep, perhaps. But in EE or CS, and at the level of this book's intended audience, it's a good level of detail. Then, she rapidly goes into Asynchronous Transport Mode, SONET and [of course] TCP/IP. The latter being the Internet. Possibly for most of you, it is the Internet sections that will be of interest. The Internet version 4 is explained. Along with a brief synopsis on the 128 bit version 6. Barrett also takes you into the higher levels. Of what it means to run a network. And how to defend it against malware attacks. These latter sections of the book are more about software issues. With a warning about social engineering as one attack vector against your users.
