Customer Review: This was my first web application security book. I've been reading online blogs and web-sites about web security for a while, and I've been waiting for this book to come out.

Customer Review: First, here is what my early endorsement for the book said (can be found on the inside cover of the book): "Amazingly useful (and fun to read!) book that does justice to this somewhat esoteric subject - and this is coming from a long-time visualization skeptic!

Customer Review: I am a network engineer (mainly voice and data) and recently had to start gearing up for ASA's and FWSM's.
