Actually entertaining instead of torture."<br /><b>—Slashdot<br /></b><br />"The most comprehensive guide to TCP/IP protocols we have ever come across. It also is the most readable. This is a book that will be staying on our shelves, and we highly recommend it."<br /><b>—Network World<br /></b><br />“This is a really well-done book, and well worth the price if you need up-to-date, easy-to-digest information about TCP/IP. I wish I'd written this puppy.”<br /><b>—IBM’s developerWorks<br /></b><br />“Nicely organized, from an introduction to networking through administration and troubleshooting, the book clearly explains each topic.”<br /><b>—Library Journal<br /></b><br />"I've never seen a book on this subject before to match this one . . . It's as close to indispensable as a printed work can get."<br /><b>—NetPerformance.com<br /></b><br />"The book is well-organized, well-illustrated, and has a conversational tone that makes it easy to read and learn even for networking novices."<br /><b>—Windows Networking<br /></b><br />"It's informative and easy to read, even when discussing rather nasty protocols, and when it covers something, it generally covers it quite completely."<br /><b>—;login:<br /></b><br />"Due to size, it may seem like this book is solely for students or engineers. However, <i>The TCP/IP Guide</i> is great for anyone and everyone as it can act both as a reference guide and a textbook."<br /><b>—Linux Security<br /></b><br />"The author does a great job of discussing the significance of the information he is presenting . . .

I continue to be astounded that this much information, presented in a clear and entertaining fashion, is available for so little.”<br /><b>—Kickstart News<br /></b><br />“A mind-boggling contribution to understanding and applying TCP/IP protocols to network administration. . .This is a truly impressive work. . .comprehensive and readable.”<br /><b>—JavaRanch<br /></b><br />"This is the kind of reference book that might be worth reading cover to cover in spite of its bulk."<br /><b>—Open.ITWorld.com<br /></b><br />"This book is the Real Deal. . .

A welcome change from the information congestion common on the Information Superhighway."<br /><b>—About This Particular Mac (ATPM)<br /></b><br />"Focuses on the nuts and bolts of how the protocols work while maintaining an emphasis on the present state of the art (including extensive coverage of IPv6)."<br /><b>—Book News<br /></b><br />"A must-have addition to the libraries of internetworking students, educators, networking professionals, and those working toward certification."<br /><b>—Golden Triangle PC Club<br /></b><br />"Anything and everything you ever wanted to or needed to know about the ins and outs of the TCP/IP. . . you could not find a better, more comprehensive book on the subject.
