Best book I have read in some time! Should be required reading for every prospective parent. This wonderfull,intelligent beautiful young woman is my new hero!!! I could not think of a better role model for my two young daughters. How appropriate this book was written by a woman of her age and background. She only confirms to me what I have known for so long now. The “60′s” was and continues to be the most monumental failure known to man. The sooner we stop the social experimentation and engineering the better we all will be for it. Eagerly await her next work whatever the subject may be.

How the Internet Works (How It Works) por Preston Gralla, es sin duda una excelente guía de información para todos aquellos que desean expandir sus conocimientos acerca del inmenso mundo de Internet. Con este libro lleno de ilustraciones a todo color, se hace muy fácil asimilar el conocimiento acerca de como viaja la información de computador a computador a través de Internet. También explica de manera detallada el procedimiento de la misteriosa comunicación TCP/IP. Quizás una de las partes más interesantes de este libro sea la tercera sección, donde describe de manera fácil el proceso de conexión a nuestro propio servidor de Internet, el funcionamiento de líneas ISDN para conexiones de alta velocidad y la manera en que trabaja Web TV. Por último, cabe mencionar que incluye un capitulo acerca de como es que trabaja el proceso de correo electrónico (e-mail), salas de charlas, (chat rooms) y grupos de noticias (newsgroups). En general,”How the Internet Works ” es una excelente publicación. Te la recomendamos!!

I highly recomend this book for 4 year olds and 80 year olds. This book addresses concepts only and then at the most simplistic of levels. I am not technical and was not looking for a book targeted to programmers. I simply wanted a book that would provide a modicum of information to satisfy a curious mind and give some substantive explanations as to how the internet works. This taught me nothing and is falsey advertised.

This book is good for a person that have no idea what internet is all about, and of course and his job is not related with telecommunications or communications engineering. For a guy which is already working on this field will result extremly basic, maybe shall look for something else more formal

Excellent book for mom and dad if they ever ask you how the Internet works. I got lost in the world of colors and BIG arrows and pointing all over the places.
