It covers the components, concepts, and concerns at a level that is right for the department manager or not-quite novice user. The book may appear dauntingly thick, and not quite as lavishly illustrated as its other Ziff-Davis kin, but it's probably easier to than it looks at first glance. The intent is to educate, and the reading level and tone are suitable to the task. You will not be able to set up your own network after reading this book, but you will be able to start designing what you want, and either talk intelligently to consultants, or direct your studies. copyright Robert M.
