"This is a solidly written, editorially balanced, and
well-researched set. Particularly appealing are the sidebar
articles highlighting current events that pertain to the discussion
at hand, such as the item on 'worm warfare' in the chapter on
cyberterrorism. A solid choice for public and academic libraries."
