Summary: New information taught well
Comment: This book conveys information technology aspects in a serious maner. How the information technology relates to business is elucidated very well. Case studies are provided at the end of each chapter and are applicable to real-life problems.

At the end of each chapter are discussion questions to help review important points presented in the chapter.

Answers to the chapter cases and the questions can be acquired from the publishing company.

I appreciate this book since it has taught me how business and information technology depend on each other to produce a profitable company. This book presents information technology aspects in a clear and concise manner, as compared to other IT books that delve into lingo and the like.

Summary: Applied Data Communications - A Business Oriented Approach
Comment: Unlike many books, written on today's technology issues, Jim approaches this topic from the business perspective. This top-down approach allows one to understand how a set of technologies maps to the business drivers. This books looks at business impact from a business management perspective. Moreover, this book covers a range of topics that allow the reader to understand the complexity, and interrelationships, of today's distributed internetworking environment.

The reader will be exposed to layered architectures - understanding how they interrelate, yet remain separate. The topics range from an overview of Data Communications - including voice, through local area networking - protocols and OSs, WANs, internetworking and remote access. The book closes with coverage of the network development life cycle, network management and security.

What sets this book apart from many is the way Jim approaches technology solutions based upon business drivers and criteria. Technology, in and of itself, does not enhance a business' ability to deliver value. However, when one approaches technology solutions, or innovation, based upon business criteria they are more likely to add value to the bottom line. Jim encapsulates the concept of value added technology solutions in his presentation of data communications. This book is well written, concise, and understandable - a must read for individuals focused on technology and business!
