My books came in! I also stopped by the non-fiction section and picked up some books for the challenge:
005 – The Art of Deception – one of the very few books in this section I’d want to read all the way through, as most are tutorials for computer programs and programming. This book is written by a hacker and describes the “most serious security weakness – human nature”. Supposedly like reading a mystery novel.
006 – Click – this section includes books on “special computer methods”, mostly stuff on artificial intelligence. Click describes the results of data-mining the information we share online, but seems less dry than that description makes it sounds. Reminds me a little of Freakonomics – both authors search through seemingly unconnected data for conclusions about human nature.
