This book is built up very logically. It doesn't make any assumptions about prior knowledge of network security issues. In a no-nonsense style all concepts are made clear to the reader. After reading this book you know what firewalls are all about, you have a high-level understanding of how they function, and why and when to apply them. I enjoyed reading this book.
