Stevens was a (justifiably) respected author on the topics he covered in that book (and his other books), and it will be a useful source of information for you. Just don't fall into the trap of thinking that all the material you will find there is correct. He had a tendency to make mistakes in quite important areas (e.g., most signal handlers in his books are plain wrong), perhaps in the interest of making things shorter for pedagogical purposes or perhaps through simple carelessness. At any rate, take nothing as gospel, even though the book is a useful tool.
