Book Reviews of Computer Security Handbook

Book Review: A collection of shallow, useless articles and bibliographies
Summary: 1 Stars

I completely agree with Lily that this book doesnt help computer security professionals, and I don't think it can help lawyers or management either.

There is absolutely no meat in this tome of 1200+ pages. What baffles me is why 11 reviewers gave it a 5-star rating.
