"There has been a long unmet need for an introductory text to issues around cybersecurity for non-technologists, and this book not only meets that need, but exceeds expectations.  The overview of the threats, vulnerabilities, and consequences of cyber attacks and intrusions is addressed not at the level of bits and bytes, but of governments, citizens, companies, and organizations.  Brantley and Van Puyvelde are well equipped to offer this insight and analysis, and do so in an accessible and comprehensive way.  I remain very impressed with the book’s ability to balance big narratives about challenges and incentives with small discrete episodes and cases that illustrates such big themes - giving readers both good impressions of the environment as well as concrete examples to focus their thinking."<br /><b>Brian Nussbaum, University at Albany, SUNY</b><br /> <p>“<i>Cybersecurity</i> is an impressive and comprehensive volume of original insights that will become a guiding resource in the field. There is no better text for those starting out in the field or those looking for a refresher.”<br /><b>Brandon Valeriano, Bren Chair of Armed Politics at the Marine Corps University</b></p> <p>“Finally a book that brings order to cyberchaos in a systematic and informative way. Van Puyvelde and Brantly’s dual focus on technology and politics shows how these two driving forces shape contemporary cybersecurity.”<br /><b>Myriam Dunn Cavelty, Senior Lecturer and Deputy for Research and Teaching at the Center for Security Studies, ETH Zurich<br /><br /></b>“The book and its analyses are comprehensive, lucid, and informative, capturing and holding readers’ attention.”<br /><b><i>Democracy and Security</i></b><b><br /></b></p>
