I'm looking to buy a good CCNA book prior to starting CCNA in September07.
But which book to buy?

I recommend Cisco Press and Sybex.

 

Cisco Press is really good for the technical content, but I find it a bit dry.

Sybex usually is better reading.

What worked best for me when I was doing Cisco suff was a light harted book (CCNA for Dummies) to introduce the subjects and the Cisco Press Academy Companions to develop further.

 

I've only used the Cisco Press books, but I completely recommend them. They go into a lot mroe detail than the online curriculum and none of the sections are too long and drawn out.

 

Cisco press here to. The exam study guide by Wendell Odom are very good.
