This text features real-world applications and complete descriptions of the core concepts of IP multicast, a solution for alleviating network congestion. It presents a series of multicast applications... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I bought this book hoping to gain insight into state of the art IP multicasting. While it does provide much detail on the spread of technologies and protocols available, and was a very useful reference text, I noticed that it didn't make mention of some of the more up to date developments and resolutions in this domain.In short, worthy of a read for an introduction or recent history up to 2-3 years ago, but not much use to me in order to make critical decisions for my own multicast application project.
No other book has this information

This book is great! No other book that I can think of has all this information. It is well-rounded and contains a great deal of material on multicasting, even some of the emerging "not quite dry yet" technologies.

This book is a "soup to nuts" compilation of multicasting technologies. It contains a lot of information for the reader. It's a good book for someone who would like to find the information in one-stop.
