Four stars.

Jean definately knows her content well, and she gets a little too excited at times.The content is very consise and detailed. However due to this, the book requires close attention while reading (so don't read this too late at night).I feel the other reviews on this book are rather harsh, and I must admit that the first few chapters tend to be badly written, but the rest are ok.

Great content but hard to read

I used this book for a "Distributed Computing" college course that I taught in 1999. So I read it pretty thoroughly. Overall I can't find many errors, and I thought the range of content was excellent, very thorough. In some places she is more complete than Tanenbaum. But I had to really struggle with some of the writing. It just wasn't very clear. Her sentences tend to be very long and complex which obfuscates the meaning.
