Customer Reviews & Comments
Great book. Beautifully written, clearly explained, and well organized. I even liked the figures which had a uniform pleasant look unlike a lot of the Internet and computer related books. I have bought and thrown away many books written about the Internet protocols so this book was a breath of fresh air. Instead of cutting and pasting bunch of stuff available in various places, this author actually really presented the subject in a cohesive manner. You can tell he knows his stuff and he took the time to present it. This book is not only a great way to learn about mobile IP but to learn about security, IP in general, etc. If you already know a little about those topics, this book will be easy to read and it will even give you new insights in those areas. If you never knew what a MAC or link address was or how TCP/IP worked this book might be a miss for you. This book joins the list of great books like Stevens' "TCP/IP Illustrated" or Seifert's "The Switch Book."
