In Cybersecurity and Cyberwar: What Everyone Needs to Know®, New York Times best-selling author P. W. Singer and noted cyberexpert Allan Friedman team up to provide the kind of deeply informative resource book that has been missing on a crucial issue of 21st-century life. Written in a lively, accessible style, filled with engaging stories and illustrative anecdotes, the book is structured around the key question areas of cyberspace and its security: how it all works, why it all matters....

So So
Revisado: 09-05-19
It starts out ok but quickly becomes apparent the people that wrote it are obsorbed in college level thinking instead of the real world. I don’t really understand what they were trying to accomplish with writing the book and not really sure they knew either.

In this important and revealing book, Jamie Bartlett takes us deep into the digital underworld and presents an extraordinary look at the Internet we don't know. Beginning with the rise of the Internet and the conflicts and battles that defined its early years, Bartlett reports on trolls, pornographers, drug dealers, hackers, political extremists, Bitcoin programmers, and vigilantes - and puts a human face on those who have many reasons to stay anonymous.

Waste of time
Revisado: 09-05-19
Even though the release date says 2017 nothing in the book seemed to pass 2013 and I don’t understand the point of the entire exercise. The writer appears to be giving a very few examples of strange things found on the Internet but so what? Entire thing was pretty pointless as far as I can tell. Ended up stopping towards the end because I just got tired of the pointless dribble.

Gets annoying after second chapter
Revisado: 02-27-19
The story starts out ok enough but quickly turns into a repeating saga of repeats. The author clearly has a love affair with the Marines as it seems to be the center of the story and all the conversations between the characters get annoying pretty quickly. I am currently 3/4 finished with the book and having to fast forward it through most to keep myself sane. Very disappointed.

In October of 1910, only four years before the outbreak of World War I, nobody knew whether planes, dirigibles, or balloons would prevail. Within a period of 17 days, this question was on prime display, as the dirigible America tried to cross the Atlantic; huge crowds gathered at horse-racing tracks to watch airplanes race around overhead; and ballooning teams from around the world took off from St. Louis in pursuit of the Bennett International Balloon Cup, given to the balloon that traveled the farthest.

Revisado: 11-18-14
What would have made Chasing Icarus better?
Having someone read it that might have been excited about his job?
What was one of the most memorable moments of Chasing Icarus?
We're not in high school.
How could the performance have been better?
Having someone read it that expresses even a hint of excitement. This book was interesting in story but the person reading it made it the most depressing book I've ever listened to.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment
Any additional comments?
If you are going to charge me to listen to books you should actually get people good at reading and not people that have names. I could care less what the persons name is that reads your books, only that they do a good job.

In late May 1927 an inexperienced and unassuming 25-year-old Air Mail pilot from rural Minnesota stunned the world by making the first non-stop transatlantic flight. A spectacular feat of individual daring and collective technological accomplishment, Charles Lindbergh's flight from New York to Paris ushered in America's age of commercial aviation.

So Bad I'm asking for my money back!!
Revisado: 11-18-14
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Having someone read the book that actually knows how to read.
Has The Flight of the Century: Charles Lindbergh and the Rise of American Aviation turned you off from other books in this genre?
Its the second book with a sorry person reading the contents so if they continue to be like this then yes.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Bob McGraw?
A 4 year old? He is so bad I don't know what to say.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Anger over the patchwork of recordings and in a hurry reading. Very irritating.
Any additional comments?
This book seems like he was distracted and left of entire paragraphs at points where it was required to come back in and record them over with a completely different tempo and sound quality. It is driving me crazy. I'd like to get my money back.
