Stevens was a top-notch writer, very clear and lucid.  I highly recommend
any of his books.  I have APUE, Unix Network Programming (UNP, 1st ed.), and
the three volume TCP/IP series.  If you're starting out with TCP, sockets,
system calls, APUE and/or UNP should be just fine.  The TCP/IP Illustrated
series are very detailed, and probably more than what you want at this stage.
