  Maybe.

  I reviewed the book before it was published.  It's still linked to
from freeradius.org.

  If you know nothing about RADIUS, it's worth buying.  But 1/3 is
pretty much paraphrased from the RFC's, and 1/3 is paraphrased from old
FreeRADIUS documentation.

  If you're familiar with RADIUS, it will contain little useful information.
