A growing number of the 90,000 network programmers who bought Rich Stevens' UNIX Network Programming need to address a topic not covered by this classic--how to deal with Windows Sockets, also known as WinSock. This book is the defintive word on WinSock, offering a complete tutorial on how to work with Windows Sockets and sample code, which will be available on the Internet.
Bob Quinn, currently with FTP Software, was a significant contributor to the version 1.1 specification, and co-administrator of the clarification group for WinSock version 2. He has been developing TCP/IP networks for more than five years, and was primarily responsible for the development of FTP Software's WinSock DLL.
Dave Shute, now an independent consultant, worked for FTP when Windows Sockets first appeared on the market, originally as a technical writer and eventually as the director of marketing.
