Review of 'Security engineering' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

If there are any technical books that are page-turners, this is one of them.

Page after page of real world security and engineering issues. Lucidly explained and illustrated.

The sections on nuclear reactor design and smart cards are very illuminating.

If you've ever wondered why good engineering is expensive, this is the one to explain it.

I wish I could write as clearly as Anderson.
