The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Lan Times Guide to Telephony (Lan Times Series)':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
While reading through this book, I had a number of reactions that didn't stand up to later scrutiny. For data communications professionals, telephony is the mysterious stuff that goes on "inside the wall", and that the telephone company won't tell you about. The book contains little technical material on the technical side of telephony, and it does touch on many areas which would be seen as part of telecommunications. However, for the average manager, or the computer professional who is not heavily involved with communications, this is likely a distinction without a difference. Indeed, this is not a technical book in terms of detail. The most sophisticated technology described inside is the installation of a telephone. (Readers: do not try this at home! :-) A very broad range of concepts are discussed briefly. Ultimately, the book resembles nothing so much as a topically organized and tutorial glossary. This makes for a very readable, but not heavy, introduction to telecommunications for the manager, non-communications professional, or interested computer user. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1995
