I completed the reading of an interesting social engineering book the other day.  I would like to recommend this book 
to the security community because it can provide great insight into the field of social engineering.

The author not only explores the various messages your “Stuff” depicts about you, but he also starts to express views 
concerning your virtual image (e.g., Facebook, Myspace, Website, Cyber Profile).  The book transcends both the physical 
and cyber world.

There are several video presentations on the Internet delivered by the author (including his presentation at Google, 
Inc., ABC News Nightline, and Fora.tv).
  
Have fun with it.

The information regarding the book is listed below:
