Goes into quite a lot of detail, maybe a bit too much for fireside reading

Read for a class. Full of tedious detail without much overview.

It is so detailed that newbies got a stomach on their head 😁. But you can skip these details and get the most of it. Nextime you need some details, read it back..

I didn't give this one star just because it's a textbook. It was riddled with mistakes. Obvious mistakes. The kind of mistakes where you wonder if they intentionally put them there so they can release a new edition to milk poor college students dry. I don't know how they made it to their fourth edition without fixing so many contradictions and basic math errors. Also, some textbooks attempt to bring some amount of enjoyment into an otherwise boring subject matter. This book didn't try for that. I read 2/3 of the chapters and skimmed the other third. If you're interested in studying in-depth networking, I'd suggest you find another book or just find your information online.
