Woh, that book looks excellant.
I think I may order it, actually.
It is absolutely _hell_ to find a good advanced programming or internet
technology book.
If the book doesn't expect you to be a moron (how many morons are interested
in the implementation of TCP/IP, anyway?), it expects you to be a complete
wizard (which basically means the book is a 400 page reference manual).
It's hard to find a book on computers that is for an
advanced-but-not-perfect user.
*orders*
I'll give me review to the list once I get it :)
