Great read 7 years later
Shneier basically saw the future and wrote spot on. More relevant today than when he foresaw how Computers would play a big role in the way it has in the Government, and Private sector.
Great book...
This is a great book on information security! Schneier always brings new ways of thinking about information security, and this book does not disappoint. Most Info Sec books I have read (or tried) had me falling asleep or scratching my head at some of the authors comments, but I couldn't put this one down.
