This is a great summary review not only for preparing for the CCNA exam (both the two exam and single exam approach), but also for brushing up on Network Admin skills. I've recently used this as both a study tool for the upcoming exam as well as a refresher to prepare myself for a Network Engineering interview. Be careful, however; there are a couple of editorial mistakes in this edition which could prove costly on the exam if you're not paying attention. If you have a good grasp of the material, however, you'll catch them right away and it shouldn't be a problem.
