 Great book with very helpful diagrams/pictures November 4, 2008
It is required by my course TDC 425 about telecommunication and data network.I don't have a technical background but this book is so well written that it could be enjoyed by anyone.
It provides a great overview about networks, without overwhelming the reader with tedious facts. Every now and then the material is explained with the help of nice diagrams/pictures which make it easy to understand the language.
Also the author made it easy flowing by giving a touch of humor now and then.
There were only certain chapter required to be read for my course but it is so captivating that I end up reading almost whole book.
I enjoyed this book.

I used this textbook for TDC course at DePaul.
It was really helpful and useful especially for newbie.
Plus the details are not too general.
I actually learned something... November 14, 2006

This book laid out as much information as possible without cluttering the pages with filler. There were several real-world examples, and the helpful diagrams really put the words into action. Now, there's any humor in this book, so don't expect to be entertained. And there's a lot of information in this book. I mean a lot. But if you actually want to learn something about networking and data communications, you won't be disappointed.
