Very good study guide for the CompTIA Security+ SY0-601 exam. It's engaging, with humor, illustrations, and examples; it's not as dry as other study guides. Each chapter ends with 10 practice questions, and gives the answers. The book helpfully italicizes the exam objectives, and includes helpful exam tips. "Appendix A: Exam Objective Map" lists all the exam objectives and tells which pages address them, and the glossary is extensive.
