Not an in-depth study,

This review is from: Hiding in Plain Sight: Steganography and the Art of Covert Communication (Paperback)
I have to agree with a few of the other reviewers. This book only covers a very basic overview of stego. Anybody familiar with the topic will get bored fast. The 'example' stories littered through the text were interesting at first but get old quick. There's only so many ways an author can present the same information. This books reeks of an author stretching an old term paper into a book in order to make a few bucks.

First of all I would like to congratulate you on finishing the amazing book "Hiding in plain sight". It is really a state of art. You really covered the major part of steganography if not all. I really enjoyed reading your book.Looking forward to your next publication.

perfec t for decision makers new to these technologies,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hiding in Plain Sight: Steganography and the Art of Covert Communication (Paperback)
Henry Ford was once asked how he can manage an organization the size of The Ford Motor Company? He replied that he didn't have all the answers to all the questions but he did know who to call for the answers he required. As a key executive, I make decisions that require answers that are reliable and rich with content. Mr Cole has provided the answers I was looking for in his book: "Hiding in Plain Sight". I read the entire work in one sitting because its value to me grew with each page. Thank You sir, I look forward to your next publication.
