Review:
When I saw the first edition of Ramteke's book, with its singular
title of "Networks," it was bemusing. Did it cover more on TCP/IP?
LANs? WANs? Public switched telephone networks?
Yes.
And very well, too. Using three major examples of networks, with a
few additional digressions, it covered the concepts of networking.
So I expected the second edition to be more of the same. Ramteke
obviously thought so, too, since his introduction states that he has
followed the same format. However, I found the books to be quite
different. This new edition is more than 200 pages longer, and the
additional material appears to concentrate on many more specific
network systems. Therefore, while the title originally seemed to
imply a discussion of...

Review:
This book covers installation, configuration and administration of Windows NT.

Review:
This book will give you some of the terms and hardware for linking Macs with
Appletalk. It will not, however, give you much in the way of concepts or
details. This may be helpful to those who want handholding for a very simple
network, but it won't help professionals solve problems with either Appletalk
or mixed protocol networks.
The lack of explanation or standard terminology ensures that network
professionals or support staff will not be able to deal effectively with
evaluation and management of the net, although they should be able to work out
the wiring diagrams. It is unlikely that the information given will help users
diagnose difficulties. If it isn't "plug and play", this book probably won't
help get it going.
