From the Back Cover

The first edition of this book was acclaimed by readers as an outstanding networking reference (see last page inside). It provided complete details of the Java platform's support for networking and I/O with extensive API coverage and sophisticated examples.

With over 300 new pages, this second edition is further strengthened with complete coverage of Java 2 and new material on custom URL-related factories, Java I/O, RMI, Servlets and CORBA. To make room for this new material, first-edition sections on Java cryptography have been omitted. Java Network Programming goes will beyond simple examples to show how to develop robust, efficient real-world applications.
