Computer Crime: Phreaks, Spies, and Salami Slicers (Issues in Focus)

Rating:
Summary: An introduction to computer crime
Review: Of all of the computer security books that I've read I would say this is probably the one that's at the bottom of the list. It gives you an introduction to computer hacking, phreaking, etc. The book also talks about some of the people involved in such crimes and what they did.

I would recommend this book to someone really young that wants a general overview on the topic. The only reason I read it is because it's the only book that my school library had.

Summary: I'd like a salami sandwich on wheat please.
Review: One of the first computer crime books I have read (freshman year in high school). It got me more into computer security than I was to begin with. Reading this book in class is what got me known as a hacker amongst my classmates, as much as I didn't want to be associated with that.
