The book is called "Out of the Inner Cirle."  It is indeed good
reading; I used it as one of the sources for a paper on computer
security I wrote once.

However, I'm curious; are you serious that he's not dead?  I remember
reading an obit-type article in the paper a while back.  Could you
please elaborate?

(If you're bull:-)ing me I'm gonna be ticked!)
