Customer Reviews & Comments
Somewhat indulgent at times but the hacks are real that mostly capitalize on exploiting the "defaults". However, the book includes a few nice references and material is current. The fiction was enjoyable to start but quickly faded for me as I found myself looking just at the technical aspects. However, the approach was innovative and I liked the referenced notes that expanded into technical discussions.
