The Cuckoo's Egg: Tracking a Spy Through the Maze of Computer Espionage
reviewed on + 36 more book reviews


This book follows the true story of Cliff Stoll's hunt for the existence and origin of a computer hacker that has been breaking into US computer systems and stealing sensitive military and security info. I am hardly a computer-literate person, but it was certainly an exciting read! Stoll does use a lot of computer jargon but he is a very animated writer.
