Customer Reviews

A great in depth book, for the real world
I came across this book by accident in a local library, but I'm now intending to buy a copy. This is not a book for beginners, but is a real world book, which would be of interest to many people working in IT. Some of the subjects covered include Protocols, Security, Hacking and Windows Sockets. After reading this book I want more of the same. GOOD VALUE.
