The Management of Telecommunications: Business Solutions to Business Problems

Rating:
Summary: If I had a choice, I would not read this book.
Review: As a beginner in the telecommunications field I was expecting something more simple and understandable.It is full of boring and unnecessary paragraphs, especially the ones in the blue windows.The book is very chatty and verbose.It is wasting my time. I was assigned this book at DeVry for a freshman telecommunications management course.The professor agrees that the book is written in a very complicated language. Every time he quotes the book, he stops to say: "Now, Let's translate this to English". If it was my decision, I would not choose this book for my class.

Summary: Great Text
Review: Having taken the course that this book is for, I quickly learned the basics of Telecommunications. The author's designed the layout of the text to be an easy entry to this vast technical field. Each chapter is introduced with a general "story", sometimes several stories, that explains in layman's terms the overall concept. Then the text explains the information on a more technical level. Some of the information presented IS outdated but all of it is relevant. The authors included this "outdated" information to show just what has been accomplished in the arena of Telecom. But they also introduce some of what is to come. A "Thumbs Up" to both of the authors for publishing a great text.

Summary: A terrific book at any price!
Review: This book has some fantastic material in it. I am now teaching college. Whenever I get a chance to recommend a book, I always recommend my students use this book. It has a phenomenal section about telecommunication laws that is outstanding for using in lectures. It reads well, and is very helpful!
