Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment by W. Richard Stevens.
ISBN 0-201-56317-7.

Unix Network Programming Volume 2: Interprocess Communications by
W. Richard Stevens.  ISBN 0-130-81081-9.

In fact I've found that just about all of Mr. Stevens books are
a must have on my shelf.  One of his books even features excerpts
by one of our very own, Bill Fenner <fenner@freebsd.org>. :)
