Synopsis
This book explores a wide variety of problems encountered in designing computer communications networks and presents the common techniques to solve them. The emphasis is on basic principles and motivations for design. To demonstrate the practical application of the concepts, eight telecommunication architectures are considered at length.

    Shipping was quick, packaging was excellent, condition was acceptable as described -- binding loose but pages intact. I did message buyer asking about mold and didn't receive a reply -- luckily, there appears to be no mold. Great value for a 100+ yr old book!

    I received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.
