I like Stevens writing. He's clear, he's careful, his examples make sense.

Although the title says Unix, most of this book would also apply to programming in a Microsoft environment, and since Unix would likely be a large part of what you are apt to be communicating with, this is a valuable resource for anyone doing network programming.

Stevens covers it all, from ping to printers and even remote access to tape drives.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
