It's simply good!

The good thing of a cat is, it won't bark. If I want a dog, I won't buy a cat.

Boring Dictionary of N/W Programming

It rarely talks about tricks,code is highly redundant in the sense that everywhere error checking is being done. Though book is preety straight forward.
Which makes it highly boring is that if you are dealing with some kind of N/W installation or S/W trobuleshooting.
Talks much more on code,.

A good reference
. The coding examples weren't so hot in my opinion but this book
provided exactly what I needed to jump on the UNIX network programming bandwagon and remains a reference tool.
