1 out of 5 stars Misinformation   November 7, 2000
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Beginners may find this book easy to understand, however the content isn't there. Just glancing through this book I found several examples of incorrect information. Furthormore the author tends to create his own acronyms rather then using the industry standard terms and definitions.


5 out of 5 stars Great for Beginners and Intermediates...   February 23, 2000

I actually had to buy this book for a college class however the class didn't require a thorough reading of the book. Well, after the class, months after, I went back to the book and re-read it and I must say, it's a great book. It goes over networking hardware, the OSI layer and has several diagrams. I really found this book to be helpful.


5 out of 5 stars High Quality Material   December 13, 1999
  2 out of 4 found this review helpful

I recently purchased this book to learn about networking, various protocols, OSI layers etc. Mr Panko does a very nice job of explaining difficult concepts in a way that makes them easy to understand. Every author who writes a book on a popular topic, choses to emphasize some areas and deemphasize others. For this reason, I usually buy at least 2 books on a given subject in order to get greater coverage of the subject. Sometimes I buy 3.

For a more technical discussion of some of the areas covered in this book, I purchased "Data and Computer Communications" by Stallings, 5 Ed. This book appears to be written more for EE's and CS people. It is also a very well written book.

I would recommend Mr. Panko's book for a first reading of the subject and perhaps one of Stallings, or Tannenbaum for more detail in certain topics.


5 out of 5 stars Flexible Framework Helps Understand Network Protection Needs   September 4, 1999
  0 out of 3 found this review helpful

Best impact for this purpose if used with:

Microsoft Windows Nt 4.0 Security, Audit, and Control (Microsoft Technical Reference) by James G. Jumes (Editor), Coopers and Lybrand, Neil F. Cooper, Todd M. Feinman [ISBN 1-57231-818-X]


5 out of 5 stars Practical network management overview & useful Web updates!   August 29, 1999
  3 out of 5 found this review helpful

Five (5) Star Rating . . . ISBN is 0-13-082182-9 . . . Seasoned Communications & Networking can help many business professionals understand how business data communications work together to deliver both reliable and trusted Internet Electronic Commerce applications.

Here's a well conceived and crafted collection of "lessons learned" by an author with a wealth of experience presented in a flexible but useful way.

For refresher training, this multimedia resource provides a useful framework for developing "just-in-time" team training courses for either business continuity or information systems auditing professionals. Context is critical for understanding how to identify and isolate single failure points and how to monitor network integrity checkpoints.

Because of Dr. Panko's useful index and regularly revised WebSite updates, it was easy to quickly review topics of special interest. I found most value in both the substance and style of this author's presentation.

I've returned Commerce" for key concept grounding. As a distributor of advanced data management and knowledge base systems, I might challenge his "basic rule" of information of information retrieval called SISO (Structure In, Speed Out).

However, that does not negate the overall value this book makes. Besides, I haven't browsed the Prentice-Hall WebSite recently for late-breaking updates or corrections.

I've also used Security" as a baseline to help frame implementation issues for a Public Key Interchange [PKI] Pilot Project at the MN Health Data Institute. within the information & knowledge management industries over 30 years, the spiraling rate of change is the only constant. Industry leading virtual development groups "deplete" about one-third of their usable innovative insights annually!

If you'd like to learn more, grab connected economy"

For continuing professional education, Business Data Communications & Networking is an excellent reference for self-directed learning. Today, it is unrealistic to expect complete or current information to be delivered just in printed book form.
