Overview

If you really want to know what is going on behind the scenes on the Internet, TCP/IP for Everyone is just the book. From the start, you get a gentle introduction to what TCP/IP is, how it works, and what it does. Each of the major protocols is discussed in detail. Special sections on configuration and security add to discussions of these topics found throughout the text. In addition, you will learn more about network naming and addressing; network topologies, implementation and routing issues, SLIP and PPP connections; ARP, ICMP, UDP, BOOTP, DHP, SNMP, and a host of other topics and Internet applications and their associated protocols such as Telnet, FTP, email, Usenet, gopher, the World Wide Web, NFS, SMTP, NNTP, and HTTP. In addition, there is a full chapter on using TCP/IP with Windows 95 and a look at the many changes in IP, Next Generation.

TCP/IP for Everyone introduces and explains internetworking functions and applications and examines how internetworking offers clear business advantages. Designed to be used with any platform or TCP/IP product, including Windows 95, the book addresses new technologies such as wireless communication and ATM. Includes vendor lists, on-line resources, and a glossary.

Based on the experience of the English authors in developing and documenting the laparoscopic repair of inguinal hernias, this highly color-illustrated volume provides information and hints, not only about the techniques of laparoscopic and other types of inguinal hernia repair, but also about laparoscopy in general. Following the introduction, nine chapters address the history of hernia repair; equipment; internal inguinal anatomy; preoperative assessment; anesthesia; operative technique--the transperitoneal approach; operative technique--the retroperitoneal approach; dealing with difficulties; and results. Appendices include checklists for equipment and a handout for patients. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
