Covers the latest in Wi-fi
Very thorough and detailed information of 802.11 wireless technologies. Most other books on the topic are horribly out of date, but this book at least at the time is very current on the latest on the 802.11 standards. In particular sections of 802.11 ac and 802.11ax are great to have as they are the latest in wifi.

Standards not hands on
I wanted a more hands on approach. The book goes into WiFi standards, not hands-on router programming.

Light and quick book for wifi standards
This a is a pretty good intro into what wifi is and the standards surrounding it. I wish there was a partner book to go along with it as it feels a bit light but this information is still helpful if your taking a networking course.

BEWARE: very small amount of content (lots of white space and blank pages)
This is a very brief, very high level summary of what the various 802.11 standards are generally about. No detail beyond these high level summaries.The publisher seems to have realized they did not have a full book on their hands, so they went small (6 x 9 inches), and they left blank 21 of the 107 pages. They also counted every single page including the first title page (which is generally not counted), and they left a lot of white space on the non-blank pages.If this were published as a normal size book without all the gratuitous white space, it might occupy about 30 pages? Just a guess.Another reviewer said this was "Very thorough and detailed information of 802.11 wireless technologies". Is he perhaps a friend of the author? Thorough and detailed this is not. Can a thorough and detailed account of all the various 802.11 standards fit into about 30 pages?For what it is, it seems fine. It's a concise high-level summary. But I feel they're marketing and pricing it as a book when it's really more of an introductory pamphlet.

Very, very, very basic
This book is a joke! There is just over a full page on physical layer. Need I say more?
