The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Lan Times Guide to Wide Area Networks':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
While professionals might find it a bit simplistic, for the average non- technical (or, at least, non-data comm) manager this is an excellent guide through the pitfalls of setting up networks encompassing more than a single building. The material is up to date, useful, and presented in a friendly manner. I found the organization of the material a bit disjointed at times, and was disappointed that the "explanations" of some of the newer technologies was more technical rather than based on uses, strengths, or weaknesses. Overall, though, this provides a quick and helpful guide. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1997
