5.0 out of 5 stars
To the point
For those who are seeking the alternative topologies in Electronic Payment systems this book is a very good starting point with some very good references as well. Gives a good insight on the mechanisms as well. One downside is that too much emphasis is put on maths for security related subject compared to the general aim and tone of the book.

Not up-to-date!
This book is from 2001 so it is definitely not up-to-date. In one table, it compares 25 different companies that offer payment options on the web but only 4 or so are even around. So I'd be wary about paying $88 for information that may not be too trustworthy. Seems geared more towards academics than professionals.

The only missing dimension in the book is the strategic/business aspects. The rest is brilliant. In particular, great description of the emerging payment mechanisms (ecash, digicash, cybercash, millicent...)

Academics understand technology, not the business,

This review is from: Electronic Payment Systems (Artech House Computer Science Library) (Hardcover)
I believe this book is a good technical study in the bits and bytes of how payment systems work, yet lacks the real-world applications, value propositions, and financial information on why some payment systems work, and many others are complete failures in the real world. Technology is only one segment of the payment arena.

The book provides excellent discussion and illustration of the inner workings of electronic payment systems. This book is good for anyone with a basic understanding of networking and a desire to learn about current payment implemtations.
