If you are looking to be a Network Admin. or to be able to design and implement a new network, then this book would be no more than an appetizer. This book is really good for those of us who just have some questions and want to be able to understand how things work a little better. After reading this book, I realize I have more to learn.

A computer book made for the artistically inclined. This is a *great* book. I build web pages and need to learn how to talk intelligently on a daily basis to our network guys about backend, hardware stuff. I showed them this book and (although they laughed a little at the idea of a book on networking having color pictures) they were quite impressed with the content. I was told to pay special attention to Chapter 8 "The OSI Model and Protocols". This book is easy to read and to understand but also delivers a lot of information. It's wonderful!

I teach networking classes at Computer Applications Company and I have found this book to be an excellent resource for beginners to learn networking terminology and concepts. Most of the students who used this book learned the concepts quickly.
