Book Review: WarDriving


Book Review: WarDriving 05/27/2004 06:24 PM
Nobody likes to make enemies, but I have to be honest about the dollar-to-content value of this book: Let me be clear from the outset. I don't know any of the authors of this book, except by reputation, and have nothing but the highest regard for their technical knowledge and their achievements. The folks who wrote WarDriving: Drive, Detect, Defend are experts about most of what they write about, and offer great technical insights and tips throughout. That said, I can't recommend this book primarily because the best advice is already available on the Web for free in much the same form; chunks of the most practical early part of the book are repetitive to cover different operating systems or scenarios with the same approach; the middle part of the book comprises a 60-page-long set of anecdotes with long code extracts; and the last part of the book features security advice that's somewhat strange focusing on commercial software and hardware that's obscure and hard to use and mostly out of keeping with the kind of audience that could possibly be interested in this title. A factor that led to book bloat (520 pages, no CD-ROM, $49.99) is the lengthy reproduction of code, sometimes double spaced that a reader must be expected to input rather than download or copy and paste from a Web page. Further, many of the programs seem too idiosyncratic to be of general utility, arguing against their inclusion in the printed book even if other programs were printed in full. For fairness's sake, after reading this book a few weeks ago, I sent the publisher's publicist contact my remarks and a list of errors found in the book. I was promised some follow up and didn't get it, so the statute of limitations of waiting for a response to specifics has ended. I should also make it clear that I have co-written a book on wireless networking which has practically no overlap with this book. In general, the book is best at collecting and providing documentation on the trickiest aspects of scanning for, recording, and defending against wardriving and Wi-Fi network cracking. Some of the areas on defense are the strongest in the book, although other areas seem highly misguided. From the first page of the book to the end of Chapter 7, page 243, it's at its strongest. It's a cogent, how-to guide to installing and...

Book Review: Against All Enemies


Book Review: Against All Enemies 04/17/2004 03:20 PM
When Against All Enemies was published a few weeks ago, it was greeted by a flurry of press and blogsphere discussion, almost entirely focused on the book's criticisms of the Bush administration. Those criticisms are largely contained within the book's final chapter, a chapter that feels grafted on, and which is significantly different in tone from the rest of the book. It's unfortunate that this chapter has become the focus for discussion of the book - a fact which argues that, perhaps, it shouldn't have been included at all. The majority of the book is a discussion of how the first Bush administration and the Clinton administration gradually came to realize the existence of al Qaeda and tried to figure out what to do about it. The story is framed, at the beginning and the end, by the events of September 11, 2001 (during which Clarke was one of the people primarily responsible for government operations during the hours until President Bush took charge) - but that is simply the framing; the real meat of the book takes place in an earlier time. The time that laid the groundwork for that day.
