  Would you say that this book is still relevant, now that it is 15 years old?
  • jambutters 7y ago
    yes, its structured in a way that's very hands on

    It's wonderfully relevant because it takes you through the basics and those are all still the same. Their simulator software was already old when I went through the book a few years ago, but I'm sure it still works fine.

  Agreed. I read through this on a recent vacation and even though i have a computer engineering degree, it was nice to get through the basics again and they have some fun exercises.
