From the Back Cover

Here's a "one-step" guide to ISDN theory, standards, software, and implementation of ISDN systems and hardware! Both the U.S. and international standards are covered. Written by an experienced telecommunications engineer, it provides you with the latest information on:
* "framed" and packet data transmission
* the open systems interconnect (OSI) model
* CCITT and ISO standards for ISDN
* ISDN exchanges
* packet handling and transfers
* high-level data link controls (HDLCs)
* testing and verification of ISDN systems
* intergrating total ISDN networks

Numerous diagrams and examples illustrate key points and concepts. More than just a tutorial, ISDN Design: A Practical Approach will be a valuable working tool and reference for all ISDN design tasks.

Review

The nicest aspect of Steves book is that he doesnt hesitate to stop along the way to familiarize his reader with the practical aspects of telecommunications design, such as A/D and D/A conversion, pulse code modulation, and eventhe transmission characteristics of multilayer printed circuit boards. Where he feels it appropriate, he describes what type of lab equipment could be used to monitor or troubleshoot ISDN design.
