Hi everyone and welcome to another post in my favourite blog entry category: Book Reviews. Im happy to announce that for the first time ever I have actually managed to read a book and write a review of it before its official release (unlike my other reviews where I often review three year old books). Im talking about Adam Shostacks and Andrew Stewarts new book The New School of Information Security here which will be released tomorrow.

The New School of Information Security is a weird book. From the title of the book youd think that this is a book about information security for people who have at least some kind of clue about information security. I mean why would people that do not have a clue about information security read a book about reforming and improving the field of information security? Unfortunately this assumption is wrong.
