Usually I try and stay out of the clutter related to books, but relating to
the Original posting for this thread(which I couldn't find) My personal
comments on the CiscoPress book are to read chapter 9 first. While studying,
be prepared to turn to it to clarify concepts. Sometimes you are so busy
trying to figure all the in depth stuff you miss the whole picture, and that
chapter tries to keep things simple.

Try "routing in the internet" by christian huitema (2ns edition has an
orange cover)
very in-depth coverage of all the major routing protocols, good to read
cover to cover, a brief section on IS-IS and some other rare protocols is
included.

plus: recommended by nanog ;)
