Informative TEXTBOOK
Very text book like.
Big book with a lot of information, but if you have a droning teacher who lets you know how confusing this book is, you are likely to believe it. Read more

Informative TEXTBOOK

Created: 01/10/10
Very text book like.
Big book with a lot of information, but if you have a droning teacher who lets you know how confusing this book is, you are likely to believe it.
I love the diagrams, but the points are not very clear. You have review questions which you cannot be sure how to answer them because the text book does not define it clearly enough.
The use of bullet points, italics, shading is used, but not like most text books that are forthright with the point. I can only assume that the book is for Security professionals ALREADY in the field, and want to study for an exam, and unfortunately I am entry level into Information Security.
