[Antonio Costa · Rating 3 out of 5]

A lightweight book, easy to read, good for starting... many examples included in the book have mistakes... some of them very obvious. Should have been corrected on review. The authors wrote the code by hand without testing it.

[Dmytro Chaban · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very good book to gain some extra knowledge in other protocols then udp/tcp. Here's FTP, SMTP, RTP and a lot more than this. You also will dive into some things that happens under transport layer e.g network types and standards. Really recommend this book for you if you want to know more than how to convert you data to json.
