Latest Book Arrives Soon

My third book, Extrusion Detection: Security Monitoring for Internal Intrusions, should appear on book shelves very soon. Addison-Wesley updated the publication date to reflect today (4 November 2005), a week earlier than the planned 11 November launch. I have not yet received a copy, and no preview chapters have been posted yet. I was assured that Chapter 4, Enterprise Network Instrumentation, would be made available in .pdf form at the publisher's Web site.

I looked at the Best Book Buys Top 100 List this evening and saw these results:







I don't understand these book rankings, which are listed "as of 28-Oct-2005". Here are the top 5 books:


  1. Wild at Heart: Discovering the Secret of a Man's Soul by John Eldredge

  2. The Complete Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson

  3. Financial Accounting by Robert Libby

  4. The Game: Undercover In The Secret Society Of Pick-up Artists by Neil Strauss

  5. The World Is Flat: A Brief History Of The Twenty-first Century by Thomas L. Friedman


I could not imagine a more ecclectic groups of books! I guess having my three books in the rankings is better than not seeing them there. Incidentally, the list includes two other books to which I contributed; number 11 is Incident Response & Computer Forensics, 2nd Ed by Chris Prosise, Kevin Mandia, and number 18 is Hacking Exposed: Network Security Secrets and Solutions, 4th Ed by Stuart McClure, Joel Scambray, and George Kurtz.

I have ideas for another book which I plan to reveal soon. If anyone has feedback on any of my books or ideas for future work, please feel free to leave a comment or send me email. Thank you.
