It's really more of an example based tutorial book than cookbook. What it does do really well is 'networking programming essentials'. I found it quite a good book and managed to write a distributed ssh cron tool in an evening after reading the sections on SSH. What I'd really like now is a 'Web Application Development with Twisted/Nevow' book that takes off where this 'network protocol' oriented book leaves off.
