I second the great recommendations made thus far, they're worth reading several times. There is another good Handbook of Applied Cryptography posted online http://www.cacr.math.uwaterloo.ca/hac/ If you're looking for some good online resources, not necessarily books, here are some of the many I use: CCIPS http://www.cybercrime.gov/ http://www.usdoj.gov/criminal/cybercrime/cclaws.html http://www.usdoj.gov/criminal/cybercrime/s&smanual2002.htm Federal Rules of Evidence http://www.law.cornell.edu/rules/fre/ Christine Siedsma's web site e-evidence.info maintains a great selection of Legal Reference Material and other good reference material for legal/forensics issues. http://www.e-evidence.info/legal.html Thanks!

Bruce Schneier - Beyond Fear and Secrets and Lies. Two excellent books. He is the founder and CEO of Counterpane and publishes one of the widest read infosec newsletters crypto-gram. He also wrote the excellent book Applied Cryptography about 10 years ago which details how codes are made and broken.

I appreciate all the responses. lessing.org might answer what I need, it seems, after looking at he site. I saw the reviews on amazon, for his books and look impressive. Hope to see more recommendations. Thanks. Aman On Tue, 2004-02-17 at 00:14, N407ER wrote:
AgfTech Lists wrote:Hi All Can someone suggest a GOOD Cyber Law book? Thanks in advance.You were probably looking for something relating to cyber security law, but, what the hey, you didn't specify. Larry Lessig (lessig.org), if you haven't heard of him, is pretty much a visionary when it comes to Internet, digital media, and intellectual property and culture (as well as other issues like privacy rights and so forth). He's a Stanford law professor, founder of Creative Commons, the Stanford Cyberlaw Clinic (I believe he founded it, but I could be wrong), and so forth. He's written two books so far (working on a third, I believe). His first is _Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace_, which is more or less a basic look at the interplay of law and the Internet, and how we interpret laws written hundreds of years ago to match new situations. His second, _The Future of Ideas_, is more of a personal, opinionated (but, in my opinion, very much on-target) look at where all this is going. Try either one. Especially the second, as it's somewhat less dry. Cheers.
