I may recommend the following textbook:
	Fred Halsall
	Data Communications, Computer Networks and OSI
	Addison-Wesley 1988

	Make sure you get 1988 edition -black&blue hardcover.
	It is >500 pages of which more than half is about OSI.
	Has very good diagrams.
	IMHO it is now the best textbbook in data comms.
	It is by a British author so may not be so popular in the USA.
