Great book about QoS - and more!

This book is remarkable. It manages to provide a thorough up-to-date coverage of everything you always wanted to know about QoS but were even more afraid to ask than about the original 3-letter thing. Not only it educates in the current state of the QoS affairs, but also I think I learned enough to follow on with evolving technologies and approaches. Then of course, you cannot really talk about QoS without referring to all major Internet/TCP/IP mechanisms. So as an added bonus, the book provides lots of concise but comprehensive refreshers on IP addressing, router architecture, LAN technologies, end user applications, etc. The book is easy to read. It makes a good weekend reading that allows you to update your resume on Monday with "QoS expert".
