Title: curiously complete Review: When I saw this book, I thought the same thing you are probably thinking ... how could you have a whole book on this subject? Then I read the quotes from luminaries on the back cover, and I figured they were just friends of the author and hadn't bothered to read the book.Well.This is a short book, but it's amazingly complete on the subject. I don't agree 100% with all of the policy advice he gives, but it's fascinating to read the real-life password analyses he's done. If you are just someone who wants to pick better passwords for yourself, you *might* like this book. If you are an admin trying to figure out a sensible password policy for your bailiwick, I *strongly recommend* this book to you. It won't take you long to read it, and you are almost certainly going to get some insights even if you are pretty experienced already. (I am, and I did.)I'm glad I bought it, and I'm glad I read it.

Title: A must-read information wars thriller Review: I am impressed with the authors research abilities and accuracy shown in his book back\slash. While he had some inaccuracies in the book such as telnetting through e-mail. Most other aspects of the book were correct showing little error. I would pass the few alterations or mistakes he made in the book as necesary in order to make the book readable without making it a security problem for the internet *note the authors note in the begining* I would recommend this book to anyone interested in the saftey of computers and the net.

Title: a little dissapointing Review: I just finished reading this book and despite its recent media attention, I have to say that I was quite dissapointed. While entertaining, this books fails to offer practical information and the information the authors do share is not very sophisticated. For pure enjoyment, this book is OK. If it is practical information you are in search of, this book is not for you. No pictures are offered and the authors recommendations are vague. I much prefered Secrets of a Beverly Hills Cosmetic Surgeon by Dr. Robert Kotler. I highly reccomend his book for those interested in practical information on cosmetic surgery.

Title: 900 Bloated pages Review: The story is good but this guy Stephenson makes two or three sentences out of every one. The book is at best a 400 page novel. If he would get to point and stop sputtering bull!@#$ it would be much better. I am by the way an electrical engineer working in software and find it highly unlikely that any disciplined mind could put up with so much fluff instead of the story. Stephenson is highly overrated Is the review positive or negative?
