A very well done strategy guide, the best out there!


This is maybe the best strategy guide i've seen in all videogames. It has every secret in the game, and it's very easy to use! I would reccomend this strategy over any other one on the market!

The best book on pointers I have seen


After reading the reviews, I purchased this book only to be severely disappointed. This book does a poor job explaining casting, pointer to pointers and scaling. The author included a lot of code in the text (and on disk), but very few comments within the code or text. In source 5.6, he has a 1 sentence explanations for 6 pages of code. I read the first 100 pages and that's all I can take. This book stinks!

If you only buy one book on LDAP Directories...


...this should be the one! One of the best indepth discussions on the LDAP protocol and its uses I have read. This book is one of the few that I own on LDAP that has no dust on it, and the pages are fraying from beign thumbed so often...
While there isn't as much programming info that I would want, it is understandable, as teh book is quite indepth, and a programmer should be able to build on the knowledge he or she will gain from reading it.

Title: Applied Cryptography: Protocols, Algorithms, and Source Code in C, Second Edition
Publisher: Wiley
Authors: Bruce Schneier
Rating: 4/5
Customer opinion - 4 stars out of 5
Good overview with practical use in mind


For a subject like this....one would expect a lot of mathematics involved but this is not the case.....
First of all this requires min. knowledge of common algebra ( I believe this is good).... secondly it does not go into full detail.
Well, the book covers all the cryptographic algos/ protocols possible......in that sense its good.........Secondly.....the language and the explanation is very easy to follow.....
I gave this book 4 stars because I feel it does not cover the mathematical aspect of cryp. in right amount of depth and essence.
Definately a must read....
