Reader ReviewsMike writes "discussionally" (that's my term Mike, you can't have it). It's like he's sitting across the table from you during dinner, trust me, I've been there with Mike. His writing style makes it easy to read, learn and retain the information. In fairness, I took my Network+ exam just to see what it was like after more than a decade in the industry, but I enjoyed reading Mike's book and learning things I didn't know while seeing old knowledge in a new light. If you don't read this book, you won't know everything you need to know to pass the Network+ exam.
