[Amanda · Rating 4 out of 5]

Definitely a good study guide book, and lots of learning about routing and networks. Abandoned it as I didn't have time to keep working through it. Maybe in the future if I get back into understanding the depths of the internet!

Good book, but 20% not main content

I would have given this book 5 stars, but 20% one book it just the glossary and appendices. The book's main content seemed a lot longer (roughly 200 pages) when I bought it.
