Network and Internetwork Security: Principles and Practice

Rating:
Summary: The book contains an extreme amount of editing errors.
Review: The book is poorly written whereby the author fails to provide adequate explanation of each topic. The author fails to provide exercise problems that can be solved from the chapter discussed.

Rating:
Summary: Good summary of Cryptography and Network Security.
Review: This book explains the issues of Network and Internet security and covers cryptographic principles in general too. Though there is loss of depth in quest of width, it served me well to get a good grounding in the subject. I hope the author focuses on some practical, implemenation issues in the next edition. The topic of firewalls needs better attention and so does IPSec.
