Stevens' left-overs
Rated out of 5 stars, August 12th, 2003
Inadequate coverage of HTTP, which has had much added to it since this book was written. Transactions for TCP are probably not very interesting for many people, as its a protocol that never seems to have taken off - though it was Stevens pet project.
Whilst I wouldn't hesistate to recomment the 1st 2 volumes (and the 2 UNP volumes and APUE), I'd say that this one is less than essential. -
The sequel to a sequel - doesn't live up to Vol 1 and 2
Rated out of 5 stars, March 12th, 1998
Volume 1 covered the basic - down to the nitty, gritty bits. Volume 2 gave us the source. Volume 3 tells us about T/TCP and HTML. Not more, not less... I devoured the first two volumes - and just browsed the third.
