The book is obviously good. This book is recommended by our teachers as well and also by friends and has very good explanations for each topic. This new edition book is fun to read with Tanenbaum’s sense of humor. He has many exercises which motivate and make people think deep into the problems.
There is a huge disappointment with the index of the book, less information about the contents. You will need to read the whole book to know which topics are in which chapters. Also the appendix doesnt help. Overall its good for students to learn more!
