Customer Reviews:
Can not see the forest behind trees...	Customer Rating: 2 out of 5
This book is too detailed about how does IMS work, but doesn't disclose why, for what and what you get having IMS deployed. Operators will remain uncovinced, having this book finished.
definitive but riddled with jargon	Customer Rating: 4 out of 5
The book is dense with the acronym-ridden jargon of this field. To someone new to the Internet Protocol, this can be a practical impediment to understanding. What you have to do is grit your teeth and focus on the ideas beneath the terminology. The subject itself is potentially quite promising. One possible direction for richer multimedia messages, in the limit of "convergence". The book also addresses mostly the prospect of wireless messaging, ie. cellphones. While IMS can certainly occur on the traditional landline connections to the Internet, it is the tie-ins to mobile networks that motivates much of the text.
Good IMS Book	Customer Rating: 4 out of 5
Good IMS book with satisfactory beginner to advanced content. Can benefit from some format enhancements and a better hierarchical approach to the IMS. Otherwise, I definitely recommend.
The IMS: IP Multimedia Concepts and Services	Customer Rating: 4 out of 5
This book stands out amongst the limited titles on IMS,which are really comprehensive in nature and would specially seem very well structured in terms of flow of information to those who have tried to go through endless revisions of 3GPP standards.But where this book disappoints is that it has only and only reffered to 3GPP standards and have got no referrence to 3GPP2 and some delta specifications by Cablelabs for cable service providers.
