Críticas:

Consultant and trainer Sutherland offers typical computer users a concise and non-technical description of the TCP/IP-based technology that underlies the Internet. He does not explain how to use the technology, nor does he provide much information that an information technology professional would not know. Some simplification, he confesses, is necessary to attain his goal.Book News, Inc.®, Portland, OR

Reseña del editor:

The Internet continues to grow at a very rapid rate. Together with this growth there is an accompanying growth of the technologies on which it is based. These technologies make use of TCP/IP as their foundation. To start to make sense of all these interrelated systems it is important that today's computer user be aware of the technologies on which the Internet is based.
This book introduces those technologies and is aimed at the Internet user who wishes to understand the technologies on which much of today's business and recreational computing is based. As such, the intention of this book is to give a succinct overview of 'how it all works' rather than provide a comprehensive reference work.
