It really is the definitive guide. I remember reading it when I was doing my Computer Science degree back in 1996.

Same for me but around 2003 :)
It was probably the best thing to read to quickly start learning sockets!
Same for me as well, around 2012 :)

I took a course on Linux Network Programming in college; at the time, my instructor said that while he loved that book, he felt David Kerrisk's Linux Programming Interface [1] had come to supersede it. I really like the latter book, though I haven't had much call to use it in the 'real world'. Really well-written and with great C++ based examples. Pity it's so damned heavy...
