TCP/IP Illustrated is the name of a series of 3 books written by W. Richard Stevens. Unlike traditional books which explain the RFC specifications, Stevens goes into great detail[2] using actual network traces to describe the protocol, hence its 'Illustrated' title.
The first book in the series, "Volume 1: The Protocols", is cited by hundreds of technical papers in ACM journals.[1]
