This is one of my favorite reference books because it's so darn practical. When I want a format, I can find it in Every Page Perfect and understand the instructions. There's nothing quite like seeing what you need to do, especially when accompanied by clear comment. I also teach writing, and often recommend that students get a copy of this book.

Once while discussing the mythical "Religious Right" on an e-list, Ann Coulter's debunking of the myth in her book _Slander_ came up. <br /> <br />"Of course she'd say it doesn't exist," a young liberal observed. "She belongs to it." <br /> <br />We see the same reaction in neo-Nazis towards attempts to discredit the equally absurd "the Protocols are authentic" myth. <br /> <br />"Of course a Jew would say there's no Jewish conspiracy -- what do you expect from a Jew?" <br /> <br />We live in an age where Holocaust victims are dying, costing us their first-hand information. And at least one member of the House of Representatives (Cynthia McKinney, D-GA) uses the words "Jew" and "Israeli" interchangeably during her antisemitic rants (Ms McKinney has even blamed Jews for causing her to lose a primary in 2002; sadly, she's back in office). <br /> <br />Like books against Communism, we need to have books against antisemitism, too. And this one is a great book.

This is Richard Levy's 1995 translation of Segel's 1926 abbreviated version of his original (1924) longer, more scholarly work, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, Critically Illuminated. It is a point-by-point refutation of this fraudulent document, and an indispensable reference. It is indexed, and includes a chronology of the hoax, as well as an updated bibliography. This particular edition includes an introduction by translator Richard S. Levy that would be worth a volume of its own. The following is based on that introduction. <br /> <br />While Segel's work is authoritative, Levy recognizes that logical, scholarly examination of this fraud has had little effect: <br /> <br />"The patent absurdity of the [Protocols] has had little or no bearing on its credibility for a large and varied public. ... devastating and authoritative judgments have failed to put an end to the book." <br /> <br />Perhaps the best example of Levy's point is Hitler's comment in Mein Kampf that Segel denying "the truth of the Protocols was the best proof of their authority." This was precisely argument employed to such effect in 1692 Salem: To doubt an accuser was to open oneself to accusation: Who but a member of the conspiracy denies it? <br /> <br />As outlined in Festinger's 1956 study, When Prophecy Fails, and more recently, in Susan Clancy's Abducted: how people come to believe they were kidnapped by aliens, the allure of conspiracies is well-known: Readers are "invite[d] to join the elite of those in the know." Moreover, "the [Protocols of the Elders of Zion] addresses an audience not thought capable of sustained reasoning. ... For many, the least likely explanation of great events seems the best because it is also the most effortless." Segel's arguments are therefore inaccessible to many for precisely this reason. <br /> <br />Would that the consequences of continued publication and belief in the Protocols were as benign as the copious literature on alien abduction and Doom's Day cults, but it is not. Levy sadly concludes: <br /> <br />"In the world at large, beyond the reach of the Nazis, the Protocols helped render Jews ineligible for rescue by the great majority of their fellowmen." <br /> <br />Words and ideas do have consequence.

THis is one of the few books dedicated solely to exposing the hoax that is the 'Protocols of the Elders of Zion' text. This author shows definitevly how it was created by the Czars men to discredit Judaism and cause progroms against the powerful Jews of Moscow and Odessa.<p>This book is an importnat book in the pnathyon of books that seek to explain anti-semitism. Recently the 'Elder' text has had a comback as it has been reprinted in its most viscous form, with no introduction explasining its fabircation, in Muslim countries like Egypt and Saudi and at least one un-truthful copy can be purchased on this website. Its sad to see these anti-semetic texts are still in circulation and widely beleived to be true by the ignorant and the hateful. This book helps unmask the ignorant and shed light on the fabrication that is the 'Elders' Text<p>A good read, highly recommended.

An excellent book that reviews the basic concepts and the protocols to detect and purify all the members of MMPs family and their inhibitors- It is useful for new and old reserchers in the area, describing in a clear form the last techniques you have to use in this field. I recommend it. Marta Marco.

This is an excellent introduction to the application level of networking. Applications include protocols like telnet, mail, and the web. This is the heart of the book but there is also some discussion about the basics of networking at the physical layer including routing algorithms and packet structure. <br /> <br />The organization of the book is interesting. It starts with a high level introduction to network, then goes into applications, and ends up with the physical layer. Either way, the text is good, though terse, and the illustrations are excellent. <br /> <br />This textbook makes for a find way to learn the fundamentals of network applications and protocol design.

It is clear that the author lacks even a rudimentary understanding of TCP/IP and data communications theory. The book is literally brimming with factual errors and misinformation. <br /> <br />An example about subnet masking uses a discontiguous mask (255.255.246.0) and gets the AND logic wrong. Later in the chapter it is claimed that on a LAN, the resolution of IP addresses into machine addresses is done by a dedicated server on each network. This is clearly false, and no connection is made by the author to the ARP protocol just a few sections later. <br /> <br />There are literally hundreds of examples of such blatant misinformation in the book. Within the very first few pages, there is a reference to the Nyquist theorem, which is referred to as the "NyQuest theorem". <br /> <br />Further comment is hardly necessary.

This book is a must-have for telecommunications professionals. It covers topics ranging from telecom history to the lastest technologies including wireless and Voice Over IP. For the novice, this book is written in a simple to understand format that you can learn complex topics in minutes. Great illustrations and creative graphics make understanding the complicated topics simple. Two Thumbs Up!
