Written by leading authorities in the industry, books in the Fundamentals Series provide the basis for understanding the purpose, application, and management of a specific technology. Included in the series is an updated new edition of the best-selling title "Voice over IP Fundamentals" publishing in July. As the official publisher for Cisco Systems(R), Cisco Press continues to support readers at multiple levels of learning.
"Cisco Press Fundamentals books expand the foundation of knowledge on a particular technology topic and are perfect for those who must keep abreast of new innovations," said Kourtnaye Sturgeon, Pearson Education director of marketing. "The series deliberately skips networking primers in favor of valuable, topic-specific coverage. Titles in this series provide a trusted, authoritative introduction to technology topics, covering network topologies, example deployment concepts, protocols, and management techniques."
In addition to the print product, Cisco Press also plans to publish electronic versions of each Fundamentals book. Readers will be able to download the eBook as a PDF, then search and print just the information needed. Bookmarked tables of contents and linked indexes also provide easy access to particular sections of the book.
"eBooks are the beginning of a suite of unique learning tools to help readers access content in multiple formats," said Sturgeon. "Expanding beyond the printed book to eBook format will provide even more learning options for customers and increase the products' ease of use and portability," Sturgeon said.
