Customer comments on this selection.
 Good for somebody who knows more than basics
I felt this is a good written book, except for a newbie would be very confusing. If you completely new to hacking, start out with another book (unless your going to have a lot of dedication to learning this stuff). Also the CD it came with has a lot of glitches. Install linux dont use the CD
 Excellent security book
I found the book a pleasure to read. The book explains the fundamental concepts of hacking very well. The treatment of exploits like buffer overflow, format string vulnurabilty is very good. The chapters on networking, shellcode are also very good. All throughout the book every concept is explained by extensive source codes (with clear accompanying commentary). All in all this is a great book to start learning the concepts of hacking and security.
Get your hands dirty
This is an excellent book about hacking. Includes a very well written introduction to the C programming language. The book contains very useful chapters on Networking and on Cryptology with lots of hand-on examples. I highly recommend it if you want to learn hacking techniques presented in a systematic way. Buy this book.
One of the best technical books I have ever read.
One of the best technical books I have ever read. Starts simple and ramps up very fast building on material already presented.

br /Goes in detail in showing many different "low level" exploitation techniques. I.e. buffer overflow, format string abuse, etc.

Excellent
Hacking, 2nd edition features an extensive overview of C and x86 Assembly, Linux, and slowly steps through major functions of GDB. It's a bad idea to read this book without a Linux distro at hand, but thankfully one is included.

br /I'd buy this again in a heartbeat.
