Great book on GPRS. I have read a couple of others on the subject, but this one I found was the best one out there. Written so anyone can understand. Examples and the structure of this book is right on the money! Great reference book, I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn about GPRS and have it stick!!!

Not only is this book precise and educational, I will be able to refer back to it several times through out my career. It explains the multiable layers in laymen's terms. I am impressed with the way the book starts out with the basics and leads the reader into the newer technoligies. Not only did it help me to understand, GPRS technology, but also goes into detail about the protocols that can ride on it, Frame, VPN's, IP etc. Not unlike the authors other publications, this book can be used as a tool. I highly recommend this book.

This book has a well structured flow and brings you up to speed quickly on GPRS. Easy to read, yet very informative. This book would also make a great textbook, it helped me to come up to speed quickly. Great explanation of layers and interfaces. To the point, with plenty of supporting illustrations.
