Hackers and Painters: Big Ideas from The Computer Age -By Paul Graham

It's not a gut-wrenching novel, it is a gut-wrenching page-turner and the writer says to skip through the boring parts. He is paraphrasing, though. This book is pretty depressing because of how it is informing the public of the damage to society as a result of hackers.

None of the chapters are about hacking computers. It is actually all about social issues and the behavior and components of the environment of human beings in their social development and their system of communication. It is for people in computer security or people who need to be more aware of the security of their teams, to understand the safety measures that are required(that are necessary because of the people who are attacking computers).

Has anyone else read this book? I'm sure it has saved people's lives.
