Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
A book describing emerging technologies can be expected to date quickly,
particularly in the rapidly advancing field of communications. Black has
generally stuck with the standards side of the technology, so the rate of
change is much less. The result is a decent enough overview of frame relay,
fiber distributed data interface (FDDI), metropolitan area networks (MANs) and
switched multi-megabit data service (SMDS), asynchronous transfer mode (ATM,
synchronous optical network (SONET), and mobile communications technologies.
Overall, however, these areas are quite adequately covered in any number of
other works, and Black adds little to the literature.
