WarDriving: Drive, Detect, Defend by
Chris Hurley (Roamer)

Michael Puchol (Mother)

This is the book about WarDriving and wireless network security. Written by Chris Hurley, and co-authored by Frank Thornton (owner of Blackthorn Systems) and Michael Puchol, renowned experts on wireless computer networks. It exposes the truths and myths about WarDriving and wireless network security.

Foreword by Jeff Moss, President & CEO of Black Hat, Inc.

If any of you are planning on purchasing the book via the web, I'd appreciate it if you'd do it though his site. The standard Amazon price of $34.97 (30% off the suggested retail price!) still applies. Co-authors don't get a royality on tech books like this, so I'm hoping this will generate bit more income for Thorn from the book's success.

Also, Thorn has the sample chapter (Chapter 1) up on there so you can try before you buy.
