Buy Pearson Computer Networking, Global Edition by Kurose, James, Ross, Keith online on desertcart.ae at best prices. ✓ Fast and free shipping ✓ free returns ✓ cash on delivery available on eligible purchase. Review: The pages in the global print edition are literally transparent. I am not joking. When reading a page, you can not only see the back side, but also the following page. You always see *three* sides of text overlaid together, which makes the book near impossible to read. Take a look at the picture I attached. No joke, you can see three pages of text at the same time. I'm not sure if it's Pearson (who, by the way, is apparently introducing NFT textbooks--make of this what you will), or the international publisher in Malaysia, but it's clear they are penny pinching by making the pages as thin as toilet paper. Avoid at all costs. Maybe avoid Pearson as well. Review: There are many good texts that provide an introduction to computer networking, but this is the one I think is the best. This new edition, with valuable updates and excellent web resources is particularly good.

Just started out reading the book, I find it very informative and clearly illustrated with examples explaining complex concepts. HOWEVER Pearsons "digital resources" for the global edition is non-existent. Short version: At the back of the cover there are instructions (see picture) to access digital resources. The link that the instructions tell you to go to is parked by Pearson. When contacting Pearson their advice is to return the book since "[...] the version you bought technically not managed by Pearson."". HOWEVER the authors have a public website with digital resources for their book which is free, doesn't require login and they even replied within 5min of me contacting them. Search for "authors website computer networking a top down approach" and you will find it. Authors = 6/5 Pearson = -1/5

El libro de Kurose es una fantástica guia del mundo de las redes, que define a un nivel de detalle casi enfermizo sus aspectos hardware y software. Nos han pedido su lectura completa para una ingeniería informática, y realmente no me extraña, sus contenidos son excepcionales. En ese sentido, el contenido (texto en inglés) es de diez. Sin embargo tengo un serio problema con esta edición impresa, las hojas que son algo satinadas al tacto, dependiendo de las condiciones lumínicas hacen un reflejo MUY molesto. No es un reflejo que de el papel más convencional, que absorbe la luz. Es absolutamente horrible para un lectura detallada de un rato largo. Envio una foto donde se ve como el papel devuelve parte de la luz del flash de mi móvil, algo que ningún libro debería de hacer, porque esa sensación de que las letras "se iluminan", es nefasta para largas lecturas, y hay que estar cuidando el ángulo de la lámpara flexo en caso que uséis una, porque según la incidencia de la luz apenas os dejará leer.
