This review is from: Computer Security Management (Hardcover)

Your statement that she has not published since 1994 is erroneous. The book I am seeking is ISBN 0-618-00005-8. I need it yesterday!. She is one of the BEST writers to put pen to paper. (I read the previous edition.) I must have the new edition for class. She does not waste your time or eyeballs with self-serving repetition. Read what you need; re-read what you need. Not too weighty and worth it's weight. Kudos to Ms. Forcht!
