[.ca] Newton's Telecom Dictionary: The Authoritative Guide to ... (ISBN 1578201047)

Worth every penny!:
As a telecommunications student, I was leery of all the abbreviations and unfamiliar terms. This book was very helpful in explaining new words and phrases, especially since the telecommunications industry is full of strange acronyms. Very worthwhile!

Time to Upgrade!:
How do you improve on perfection? Hard work and new content. We may be in the middle of a once in a lifetime industry downturn, but Ray Horak and Harry Newton certainly haven't been laid off. They're busy getting us reading for the next innovation wave with the 19th edition. I give copies of this book to every student who attends TrainingCity.com Voice & Data training classes, and everyone loves it!

This is the one:
I use this book all the time. This is the perfect reference book for every engineer working in the Telecomm field

The best of the best!:
If Amazon had a 20 star rating system, that is what this book would get. I keep mine located between my PC and my phone in the office...which is where I use it the most. And I use this book, literally, every day. I have only found one item I have looked for that I could not find between the two covers (a FHSS encoding method at 1Mbps). I emailed the author and it is due in the next revision. Most of all, don't let the title decieve you! This is NOT a straight telecom book. Need info on cellular, paging, wireless LANs, data networking? It is ALL there. This is the most used book I own and I own hundreds. The best investment in a book you will ever make!
