Summary: don't be fooled by the name !
Review: After passing the CCIE Written Exam last week, I re-read this book and found that it was not worth to pay such money for it.Most of topics related to CCIE exam are not covered in this book (check the blueprint of ccie R/S on cisco web site ). Although the tilte of the book is " ... CCIE." , like many "ccie" books on the market now, it has less thing to do with the real CCIE level ! Publisher should be careful about the what this kind of books talk about and don't mislead readers ! Don't get fooled !

Summary: Excellent expansion of documentation and QA derived from web
Review: After visiting the author's web site "ccieprep.com" for the past few months, this book gives a greater in depth look for preparing for a CCIE certification. It's a one stop shop for questions and answers on Cisco's Certification. The CD rom that is included was also an invaluable asset in preparing for the tests and will fill the present void for online help.

Summary: Save your money. This book does not worth the money.
Review: I am a CCIE myself and this book is one of the worse book I have ever read.

Summary: Definitely NOT this book, I would recommend others....
Review: I have read all the chapters and done the labs for this book. But I've found that this is far from the CCIE lab exam. This book does NOT give you solid groud of the complexity of the lab. And each chapter is not really well prepared and written. As the other people stated, this book is definitely TOO expensive $$$$$ for only 600 pages. Just passed my CCIE, and found that other books are FAR "Better" to get you with CCIE's hat. Ronald

Summary: Nice Book
Review: I have to disgree with my colleague there. As a CCIE myself, I think this a very nice book. The CCIE Certification is like putting many pieces of puzzles together. This book serves its purpose--by helping people better understand part of the puzzle.

Summary: So far, this book is the worst!
Review: I read few chapters of this book, and felt cheated thus far. I agree with others on this list, you could have gotten better material(s) under $99. I would suggest you to go to the bookstore and read some chapters and see if this fits your personal reference. Sam

Summary: Lousy book
Review: I was expecting a book of good materials but I got a overprice book of questions. Having flunking twice, I feel the questions are nothing of sort of the CCIE written test. Felt cheated

Summary: Bought this before it was avail here
Review: I've bought a subscription to the authors web site some time back and bought this book based on all the hard selling he was doing on his web site. He cliams that it was a completed materials for preparing for CCIE. It's not, having taken the CCNA and CCNP, it doesn't even come close for this exams either. Worse, all the questions are taken from his web site, so if you subscribe and you bought the book, you are basically paying OVERPRICE TWICE for the same thing in different package ! Lots of errors in the software. I never got around to the book because frankly the questions doesn't come close . I would have put ZERO star if it's possible

Summary: A must for any CCIE Candidate
Review: Just like the web site, this book is a great resource for attaining a pass in the CCIE drake test and Lab test. The questions similuate the real test and the lab exercises offer great detail you will not find in any other CCIE preparation . This book of questons helped me pass the test will flying colors. A must for anyone who wants to attain CCIE. Unlike most preparation guides this book also provides in deep answers. If you are going to make an investment, then don't pass this book.

Summary: One can do without book. But it is easier with it.
Review: One buys the book because there' s very little stuff like that on the market (excercises, sample questions, sample quizes). They were, probably, the first to come up with that kind of material. Yes, it is superoverpriced, yes, it is way too simple compared to the real thing. But where do you get your gas if there is only one gas pump available? I bought it. I can not honestly say it did not help me to pass the written CCIE test. It did.
