Computer Networks (4th Edition)

New edition of the classic best-seller. Takes a structured approach to networking, starting at the bottom and gradually working up to the top. DLC: Computer networks.

This is the long-awaited 3rd Edition of Tanenbaum's classic book on computer networking. The finest network engineer I know (who was stolen from my previous employer by developers of IPv6) swears by this book, and it is arguably the best single resource for gaining a good technical understanding of modern networking in the mid 1990s. Very Highly Recommended.
