Hi UNPv1,2 are more geared towards programming using the availible APIs(Sockets and XTI/TLI).So a good knowledge about networks and protocols is required.The book(UNP) does say so, in the first few pages, that APUE and TCPv1,2,3 should be read before reading UNP series. So for concepts and theory go through TCPv1,2,3 and APUE and then start UNP v1,2. 3. Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment-APUE is aimed at teaching you the system call interface on a UNIX system.And it's the best book i 've read about it till now. You can also try Internetworking with TCP/IPv1,2,3 by Doug Comer for the concepts on networks and protocols, but UNP(Unix Network programming, stevens) remains, IMHO, the best reference for n/w programming on *nix systems.
