This Is The Bible On The TCP/IP Protocol Stack
This is THE BIBLE. This is the gold standard for the exposition of the TCP/IP protocol stack. Every other TCP/IP protocol book must be measured by the yardstick of this book. This is simply the most comprehensive book ever written on the TCP/IP protocol stack. It's crystal clear and utterly lucid. Stevens tome leads the reader logically, methodically and effortlessly through all of the layers of ...

Great that it's now available in paperback!
Three years ago, this second edition was released in hardcover. A worthy and needed updating of the first edition. Now this paperback edition is made available. The cheaper cost will benefit some readers. Its reputation as one of the standard unix texts means that many unix and linux programmers need it in their workplace. But possibly the cost of the hardcover version was a deterrent. ...

simply the best
This is the best book in its category, both as a tool for preparation for exams and as a textbook by itself. This should definitely be the first book you read when studying for an exam.

Bible for TCP/IP
This is a bible, sliced into 3 neat pieces to explain and demonstrate everything related to TCP/IP right from the 0's and 1's in the packet. It is something like a must have set of books for someone who really wants to know the basics of networking right from its foundations.

awesome book for systems programming
This book is literally saving me right now in an Introduction to Operating Systems class I'm taking. We have projects to complete in the UNIX envrionment and the fact that this book gives you every real code example you could possibly need for all levels of systems programming is GOLD. It's laid out in a very straightforward way, has tons of code examples, and is overall awesome. Highly recommend ...

Excellent, informative textbook
This textbook is a wonderful resource for anyone in a college level or AP world history class. Stemming from over 5000bce to 2000ce, this book covers most major historical events in stunning detail. The pictures and historical accounts are excellent parallels to the information contained in the text. I highly recommend this textbook, it is a must for anyone studying world history in detail!

One of Two Must-Have UNIX Books
This is one of two must-have UNIX books ("UNIX Network Programming" and "Advanced Programming for the UNIX Environment"). After I had been using UNIX for a long time and was getting into more advanced UNIX programming about a decade ago, these two books were recommended. I checked around and made comparisons. Sure enough, I had to agree. I bought both of them and use them a lot, even when doing ...

Unpleasant Realities
This book is mandatory reading for anyone who thinks that nobody should be allowed to own or carry a firearm for self-defense because "the police will protect you". As the author so ably demonstrates, 911 is a communications system of variable efficacy. It's not a teleportation device which desposits the police at your location. As some of the examples show, even when the police do respond, ...

A Unix Bible
I have been actively involved in computer software/hardware for close to 20 years and have purchased probably 200+ books in this time period. Over 75% I wish I hadn't purchased. This book is probably in my top 10 however. This book is what's called a "Bible". It's an authoritive reference on Unix networking and communications (ipc/rpc) and much else. I equate it to the Kernighan & Ritchie C book, ...

Great Book
I actually had the author of this book as my teacher in pharamcy school. I took his class in the spring of 2005 and he uses this book in his lecture. It really is a great book! It gives a lot of stories throughout the book that give real life examples of what can happen in a pharmacy. It points out the good products from within a class of medications, while also pointing out the bad in other ...

This book is very badly written
My graduate Forest Ecosystems class was burdened with this textbook as the main class reading material. Not only was this book badly written, but even the professor was frustrated with the terseness of the material. My opinion is that if this is a textbook, one should not need a PhD to read and understand it. Unfortunately however, the authors assume that either you already know everything ...
