Denise Mochid reviewed Computer Networks by Andrew S. Tanenbaum
Tanenbaum is one of the best authors for explaining IT concepts and implementations
4 stars
Not only does he have an incredible knowledge, he even delivers it with a sort of dry humor that makes technical areas seem exciting and fun. This edition is sadly already more than 20 years old, but it still offers the reader knowledge about the basics of computer networks as well as its history. Some content is obviously quite aged, but I got it quite cheap in a university bookstore and can recommend it.
