This book is so VERY well written for a technical book. It covers all the topics and covers them well, making it easy to understand the topics and how they fit into the overall picture. I showed this book to an HP SAN instructor who perused it and said "Yes, this has everything you need."

Good enough to create an interest and understanding towards SAN especially when you never knew anything about it at all.
