"Art of Deception"
« on: April 13, 2005, 06:06:54 pm »
I mentioned this in another thread, but here we go again.  I recently bought "The Art of Deception" by Kevin Mitnick.  I'm about half way through.  It's pretty interesting, and I'm learning a lot, but I get the impression that he isn't the best author.  It feels like something I'd right, like, it feels disorganized and he repeats the same points in a different way a lot.  But if you look around the defects in style, there's a lot of neat learning you can do :)

I read some of AOD, never finished it, and don't remember what I read.. So yeah, it was intresting though.
It is good to be good, but it is better to be lucky.
