"THE CYBERTHIEF AND THE SAMURAI," - The True Story of Kevin Mitnick - and the Man who Hunted him Down, JEFF GOODELL, 1996. He was the world's most notorious computer outlaw; invisible & unstopable, until he crossed the wrong man. He was called "The Condor" & "Mr Cyberpunk" and he was the most wanted hacker in the world! He was a rebel, a loner, a poor kid from California thumbing his nose at society as he hacked into phone companies, international corporations and possibly even the US Military Command. The FBI couldn't stop him & they sure as hell couldn't catch him. Then he did the "impossible". He got into the personal home computer of the man, considered by many, a master of cybersecurity! That computer held data for advanced security systems & top secret intrusion & surveillance tools. Now the leading expert on computer crime made it a matter of honor to bring America's most notorious computer criminal to justice & he had the high-tech gadgets & the brains to do it. But the Information Highway is the perfect place to run, hide & get away with very dirty tricks ...

I loved this book, but I love anything that has to do with computers and crime ;-) (This "criminal" is now a successful businessman who works to stop cybercrime and was recently seen on network AM programs.) Previously read once and in very good condition with 2 slight spine creases. OOP, HARD TO FIND. Contains several pages of photos.
