The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Computer and Communications Security: Strategies for the 1990s (McGraw-Hill Communications Series)':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
This is a textbook for a security course. It has a good breadth of coverage in theoretical areas. There are problems and ethical dilemmae at the end of each chapter. The bibliographic references are a bit dated. The author is obviously unused to practical security considerations: social engineering is never mentioned. An engineering background shows through: there is a lot of math, including a theoretical basis for "doppler" detection of intruders (motion). The coverage of "hackers" and software threats indicates a heavy influence from the popular press and no real understanding of the issues. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1995
