Worst book ever
If you already have a full understanding of networks and the algorithms associated with it, this is a good reference, maybe.

however if you are looking to learn about these topics this is not the book for you.

it is poorly written, with horrible examples which leave you wondering what exactly he is trying to explain. he jumps from topic to topic, not explaining some terms till many pages later. even after reading the chapter, trying to apply the ideas to the questions at the end is sometimes frustrating.

again this is only for someone as a refresher, not for someone trying to learn about the topic for the first time.
