The author clearly understands Intrusion Detection, and computer security at a fairly deep level. He may in places disagree with me (and thus be WRONG :), but he does not lack understanding. He tries to do an awful lot of things, which is a trap many authors fall into. So, what are you looking for in a book on Intrusion Detection?
Indeed the real question is what level do you seek? For the latest and greatest in techniques you will really only find that in research papers and talks. If you are looking for an overview that that book will work. For something that might be a little more in depth you can also look at one that I like lately: Intrusion Detection by Edward Amoroso. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0966670078/qid=912720632/sr=1-2/002-8 892539-7163658 Even though the bio on the author might make you think he has a position and no knowledge, he does know his stuff.
