The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Local and Metropolitan Area Networks':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
Stallings work is the definitive textbook on data communications concepts and technologies for networks within a local calling area. This is a "ground up" treatment of the subject, starting with the basic requirements for data communications over distance, and working up to performance issues on the latest high speed networks. The material is suitable for courses which mix theory with the practical. Topics covered include media, protocol architecture, traditional technologies, high speed LANs, wireless communications, performance, bridges, internetworking, and management. Current topics such as fibre and ATM are well covered. (The next generation of the Internet Protocol is not, but is not as important at the level the book covers.) copyright Robert M. Slade, 1996
