Laura Chappell wrote a book about Wireshark: Wireshark Network Analysis (The Official Wireshark Certified Network Analyst Study Guide). In typical Laura fashion, it is amazingly comprehensive, covering everything you need to know to use Wireshark effectively. My review copy is massive. It broke the plastic binder:
The publication copies are still massive but much better looking:
The book is great. It covers all of the features in the upcoming 1.4 release and includes a ton of fascinating case studies. Best of all, if you buy it before March 29 you can get 35% off at Wireshark University and Chappell University by using the coupon code 998nws35.
I’m interested in Laura’s book, Wireshark Network Analysis The Official Wireshark Certified Network Analyst Study Guide”. How much does it cost and where can I get it from?
Thanks,
Philip Smith
The book’s purchase page is at http://www.wiresharkbook.com/purchase.html . The Wireshark University and Chappell University links should let you use the coupon code above (998nws35) for a 35% discount as well as a signed copy.
Hm… It look like coupon code did not work on Amazon.com
I tried Amazon as well with no luck. I’d love the 35% without the $10 shipping but if it’s a signed copy, hmmm…
Roger & Michael – The coupon only applies to orders placed at Wireshark University and Chappell University. I’ve updated the post accordingly.
I thought the discount ended on 3/31/10, not 3/29/10 – when will the 35% discount
be offered again?
The original code expired on the 29th. Laura issued a new code (998exp35) that expires today (the 31st). I’m not sure if or when there will be another discount.
I missed out on the discount by a day 🙁 Anyone know of an April Fool’s Day discount?!
Looked at sample pages and seems like a great read but will have to brew over paying full retail for it a little bit 😉

Amazon has the book right now for $62.97
Thanks Dan! Just ordered me a copy and freeeeee shipping is extra nice 🙂
