Before issuing the command "\tableofcontents" give the command
\addtocontents{toc}{\protect\thispagestyle{empty}}
The point is, in the default "book" class, the command "\tableofcontents"
invokes the "\chapter*" command, which in turn issues the
"\thispagestyle{plain}" command. The line above writes
"\thispagestyle{empty}" to the "toc" file, thereby overriding the default
behaviour.
