Customer Reviews

could use a good proofreadin'
The book explained the field well, but it referred, more than once, to a non-existant 'further reading' section. It also referred to a list of acronyms, supposedly containted within, which wasn't in the book either. It could really use an editor.

Diagrams were great, so were the pictures. It certainly did its job...but maybe not worth $60 plus.

A very good book
This is a good book.
For those who are new to the topic. It is best if they find as much basic information of the internet and then read this book. The book also refers to a very good website called [...] which is full of useful information on the topic.
