Customer Reviews

Very nice reading!

The book delivers nice panoramic overview of many technologies with enough depth to understand them in action. It is not the only book on the subject but it is one of few that beginner wouldn't toss out of disparage. It is readable text and it conveys knowledge. It is not a book for advanced IT reader though. If you want to explore the practical side of it I suggest to pick the "UNIX Essentials" DVD and it is nice practical, recorded course that shows these conceptions in action!

Covers all major IT concepts

This book gives a concise and impressive insight into all major concepts relating to Information Tehchnology. It is ideal for those who like to grasp the Information Technology concepts in the shortest possible time, which will enable them to be equipped with knowledge that would have taken much much longer time, if not for the distilled facts and coverage done by this book.
