{"product_id":"2940149444229","title":"Networking Fundamentals","description":"The first edition of this book was titled Networking Awesomely, in part because I thought networking was awesome, in part because I was very excited to be publishing a book. Truth be told, it was all I could do to keep myself from adding an exclamation point to an already enthusiastic moniker.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow, a little older, a little wiser, and with far more books under my belt, I’ve returned to rewrite this title. The aim was to share essentially the same ideas, but present them in a less repetitive, more concise and digestible fashion. I also wanted to publish something with superior editing and formatting, and a reduction in verbiage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite the change in name, presentation, and words I use to describe the concepts, I still believe the ideas presented in the following pages are awesome and worth sharing. They were revelatory to me as I picked them up over the years, and I still receive a large number of emails and in-person thanks when on tour from readers who gleaned helpful tidbits, and sometimes grand umbrella-concepts, that helped them grok what it is to build healthy, helpful, and long-lasting relationships with other people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI hope you find some value in these ideas, too.","brand":"Asymmetrical Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47109124489456,"sku":"2940149444229","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940149444229_p0.jpg?v=1763717654","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940149444229","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
