Sure, the title is "Unix Network Programming" volume 1, second edition
by W. Richard Stevens. ISBN 0-13-490012-X (US$ 52.95 www.bookpool.com)
As another fellow mentioned earlier, this is where the collective
wisdom of network programming is kept :-)
When you get ready for kernel level network programming, get
"TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 2". There is no substitute.
