As the previous reviewer stated, there are only about 100 pages of actual text. There is nothing inherently wrong with the book, it just isn't what I expected when purchased. Decent stories, but not a good intro to the subject. Would not make the mistake of purchasing this book if I had the chance over again.

I found this book interesting and informative.

It's a very well put together, fascinating read covering several of the more infamous malware cases over the past decade. Unlike some of the other books, the authors tell stories about cases instead of simply listing facts, which makes Malicious Bots a fun and engaging read. I certainly recommend this book to anyone that's interested in computer security research-- particularly folks new to the field.

My only complaint was that the book is short and thus was over too soon.

Malicious bots is an interesting book.

It has about 100 pages of text, so it is expensive in relation to the price.

But is has a lot of valuable and significant information, and since the authors are so specialized in thier fields, this is data you can't get anywhere else.
