Book Recommends Anyone?

Ok so ive done a few games now but i have never attempted to work with networking in them, this is something i would like to include in my next peice of software. Ive looked all over the internet and found some decent things on BSD sockets and http://www.codewhore.com/

Although both these sources dont provide very good infomation on how to setup a network in a game. I was wondering if anyone could recommend any books (macintosh if possible) that focus or have large sections on networking for games and other apps. BTW I already got Pangeas book and read over the networking section....

Thanks Guys!!!

For starters, any book on Sockets programming will do.
If you are into fast-paced games, you probably want to focus on UDP protocol.

As for on-line games, I don't know of any book devoted to network-games solely (but I might be mestaken), although some very, very good examples of HOW-TOs can be found in "Game programming gems". There are 4 books in the series (some good explanations of network-enabling your game can be found in first book, as far as I remember). Be sure to check all four of them! :)
