Cool Stuff

I have been looking for a good book to learn sockets programming. I saw this book @ BN and I liked the stuff on sockets. I bought it and I have enjoyed the chapters on sockets programming -- cool stuff with lots of sample examples. There are some minor errors here and there but it was worth the money.

Great stuff

The book was a required text for a 4th year course at my university. I bought the book and I found it to be great. The stuff on sockets and RMI is superb -- provides implementations for several protocols.

Well Written

I am new to network programming. I bought this book to learn about it. I like the book very much. The easy-to-understand examples throughout the book are very helpful in understanding network programming. Well written.

Excellent book to learn network programming

I have tried learning network programming from Orfali's client/server programming with Java and CORBA, but that book was hard to understand. This book is concise and gets to the point. I love it. I have learned a lot from it. It is surely worth the money.

EXCELLENT Intro. Book.

Very informative on the different techniques for developing distributed applications. It takes you from the low-level(sockets) to the highest(agents). Unlike other books, this one actually shows you how to run the sample applications provided. Many different protocols are explained and implemented. Good job.
