Book Reviews of The TCP/IP Guide: A Comprehensive, Illustrated Internet Protocols Reference

Book Review: Reasonably good but no bible
Summary: 4 Stars

The book has one major quality: it's acessible and the explanations are clear and concise. Unfortunately that's also the source of it's biggest problem, it doesn't delve deep enough on may subjects (for instance I needed to know better the details of IPv4 Options, ARP in it's various forms and IGMP which the book doesn't even cover).
On the whole it might be a good investment given it's price and provide some insigth into TCP/IP, but I wouldn't call it a reference book.
