Not too much about embedded networking..
A good introduction to networking. Concept regarding server/client, TCP/IP, UDP, establish of connection are well explained. However, this book give me little help in Embedded Internet, as I am not using Rabbit. Information regarding encapsulation, fragmentation of TCP/IP, Ethernet are not detail enough.The only thing that make this book different from other Networking book is its coverage on Ethernet. Not everything from scratch, but give u fundamental theory that enable you to do further reading on this.

I wouldn't buy this book =(
After reading few pages of the book I felt my self as a fool because of being spent my money on it.People outside US need to pay a lot more of shipping cost as well as to wait longer. I was waiting for the book very excited, but I got angry when reading it. I would say it is a kind of fraud. The book doesn't cover more than a good TCP tutorial on Internet, however you need to pay and wait for it.The book is not "Internet complete". The book doesn't cover what internet is. It only mentions some aspects of building a net, but anything else. If you expect to read something about packets, datagrams and so on this is NOT the book for you. If you expect to learn something deeply about chips for LAN, this book is NOT for you. If you expect to know how each layer in the TCP/IP stack works this book is NOT for you. This book is for nothing.The book is not "Embedded Ethernet". Actually I needed to pay about $50 US and wait 2 weeks just to hear "don't get in troubles, just buy a Rabbit kit, or if you like Java get the TINI card". I have cards for others architectures, but none of them. At this point I hope you may guess how I felt =( . If that is the author's idea of designing embedded systems I have a big problem.I have some books about TCP/IP and Internet (english/spanish) that are each one far superior to this one, and cover more topics deeply. I use 8, 16 and 32 bits microcontrollers in which I want to implement a TCP/IP stack, that's way I bought the book, but I've just wasted my time and money.My recomendation is DON'T BUY THIS BOOK. Try instead some tutorials in Internet, and you'll get better results and knowledges.

Intelligent, comprehensive Reading!
I spent a couple of weeks of hard research time trying to personally fathom the depths of Ethernet technology. Too bad it took me that long before I discovered that most of what I was seeking was already summarized clearly and succinctly in Jan's book.Primarily, it helped me with the overall "big picture" of understanding Ethernet, Internet, and all those crazy protocols you hear about (for all I knew, NetBEUI was some sort of nautical communication). The book explains things from basic Ethernet wiring practices, through functional descriptions of Ethernet equipment (Switches, Hubs, etc.), wrapping up with byte-by-byte explanations of all those various protocols and headers.For all of you to whom TC/IP is just a buzzword, and Ethernet just a perplexing mystery, this book will be of considerable help. It connects the dots in clear concise steps. Where it doesn't go into detail, it provides websites and reference sources to follow up on.Admittedly, if you are looking for a book to provide a step-by-step guide in creating your own embedded Ethernet hardware design from scratch, this probably isn't the best book for that. Although it provides several sources for buying turn-key Ethernet hardware boards, the focus is more with process and implementation. It even discusses setting up websites on embedded systems (I hadn't even known that was practically possible).Bottom line, if you're trying to get a handle on overall Ethernet understanding, this book is an excellent read.

Un libro para tener en cuenta
Es un libro excelente, está orientado para Técnicos en electrónica ó Ingenieros, que sepan algo de programación que quieran aprender de cero todo lo que necesitás para utilizar interfaces Ethernet y sus protocolos, para hacer tu dispositivo 100% compatible con las interfaces de hoy en día. Y como si fuera poco, la posibilidad de conectar lo que sea a Internet.Tiene una estructura que permite leer el libro de multiples formas diferentes a gusto del consumidor, ya que cada tema tiene dos partes, una teórica y una de aplicación. Esto nos permite leer el libro de muchas formas según nuestras necesidades. Ya que si querés saber lo básico para poder armar algo, podés leer la aplicación de ese tema en particular, pero si te interesa profundizar, tienes la parte teorica ahí mismo.Es un libro que todo técnico ó ingeniero interesado por el networking debería tener en su biblioteca.
