I read this one a year or so back, enjoyed it immensely. If you haven't read it, you should also read takedown, which is the story from the other side.
I also recommend The Cuckoo's Egg by stoll. and in a slightly different category, I personally thoroughly enjoyed "soul of a new machine" There are others as well. When you get through this reading list, I'll look on my dead tree bookshelf to see what else I recommend. Oh, I guess in this crowd, I should also recommend "where wizards stay up late" On Feb 6, 2016 10:34 AM, "Chuck McCown" <[email protected]> wrote: > *Ghost in the Wires* Kevin Mitnik > > Enjoying this book very much. > > Most wanted hacker from 20 years ago.
