Rezensionen
From the reviews:

"A massive encyclopedia devoted to the study of security systems. ... most of the entries contain references to further reading if you need to go into greater depth on any individual topic. ... the layout is good and the cross-referencing is very clear ... . Anyone with an interest in the mechanics of security systems will find this to be their best starting-point. ... The editor and contributors should be congratulated. ... Libraries of security agencies, etc. will obviously want a copy." (Martin Guha, Reference Reviews, Vol. 24 (5), 2010)
