Summary:
It's not just computers--hacking is everywhere. Legendary cybersecurity expert and New York Times best-selling author Bruce Schneier reveals how using a hacker's mindset can change how you think about your life and the world.
It's not just computers: hacking is everywhere. A hack is any means of subverting a system's rules in unintended ways. Schneier takes hacking out of the world of computing and uses it to analyze the systems that underpin our society: from tax laws to financial markets to politics. If you can take advantage of loopholes-- hacks-- the rules no longer apply to you. Once you learn how to notice hacks, you'll start seeing them everywhere-- and you'll never look at the world the same way again. - adapted from jacket
