QUESTION
How can one have a mini table of contents for the current chapter appear just after the chapter name listing all sections of that chapter?
ANSWER
Have a look at the minitoc package.
EDIT: Here's a minimal example:
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{minitoc}
\begin{document}
\dominitoc% Initialization
\tableofcontents
\chapter{bla}
\minitoc% Creating an actual minitoc
\section{blubb}
\section{foo}
\end{document}
