This book took me four weeks to read, but it is fantastic. Just like what the two security engineers said.
"Security Engineering is different from any other kind of programming...if you're even thinking of doing any security engineering, you need to read this book." -Bruce Schneier
"This is the best book on computer security. Buy it, but more importantly, read it and apply it to your work." -Gary McGraw

If there are any technical books that are page-turners, this is one of them.
Page after page of real world security and engineering issues. Lucidly explained and illustrated.
The sections on nuclear reactor design and smart cards are very illuminating.
If you've ever wondered why good engineering is expensive, this is the one to explain it.
I wish I could write as clearly as Anderson.
