Sinan Eren isn't listed as author either as several of the others from the first edition. Are they only listing the people that has written the new material maybe? I'll probobly pick up this even if I got the first edition. On 8/20/07, Robert Wesley McGrew <wesley () mcgrewsecurity com> wrote:
I was just browsing around on Amazon, noticed the slightly different cover, and realized that the release date for the Second Ediiton is the 20th: http://www.amazon.com/Shellcoders-Handbook-Discovering-Exploiting-Security/dp/047008023X/ref=pd_sim_b_4/002-9507551-2756861?ie=UTF8&qid=1187579269&sr=1-3 Dave is no longer listed as an author (I hope your content's out of it then!). If anyone's had a look at this, I'd love to see some opinions on how this compares to the first edition, which was good, but had some serious errors, and was never supported on the Wiley site as was promised. The book features, straight from amazon: """ * This much-anticipated revision, written by the ultimate group of top security experts in the world, features 40 percent new content on how to find security holes in any operating system or application * New material addresses the many new exploitation techniques that have been discovered since the first edition, including attacking "unbreakable" software packages such as McAfee's Entercept, Mac OS X, XP, Office 2003, and Vista * Also features the first-ever published information on exploiting Cisco's IOS, with content that has never before been explored * The companion Web site features downloadable code files """ -- Robert Wesley McGrew http://mcgrewsecurity.com _______________________________________________ Dailydave mailing list Dailydave () lists immunitysec com http://lists.immunitysec.com/mailman/listinfo/dailydave
