A basic introduction, but not much more than basic. Also, the quizzes at the end of each chapter are full of errors. Required for my Ethical Hacking class, but sites like TryHackMe have taught me a lot more practical skills.

I recommend getting both the lab access and the book to really understand how ethical hacking works.
