5.0 out of 5 stars Dated but very good
Just got a used copy of this.

As to the use of PGP, it is dated.
As to the history of PGP and crypto, it is a great book.

I found it very valuable, in 2004.

1.0 out of 5 stars small book, in content and value
The author tries to exploit his name as author of the PGP software
to write a book on the subject too. Unofrtuntely the book is ...
insufficient. I found other books on the same subject much better
than this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Told me what I needed to know., June 6, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Official PGP User's Guide (Paperback)
This book is written by the author and quite frankly is his way of paying himself back for his hard work. Bottom line is if this documentation came with the program, we wouldn't need to buy the book. The bulk of the useful stuff takes up one third of the book. The rest is historical crao that I cared less about. Anyway, thanks to the book, I could get PGP up and running on an MVS and NT server.
