Lots of books on the Internet are very enthusiastic, very American, very
journalistic—and very superficial. Not so Crime in the Digital Age, a
survey of digital technologies and their vulnerabilities. Sharing an Australian
and British outlook, P. N. Grabosky, Russell Smith and P. Wright give a broad,
well-informed overview of the opportunities for criminals. A bracing wake-up
call. Published by Transaction/Federation Press, £16.95, ISBN
0765804581.
