 I note that there has been a book published by Van Nostrand Reinhold
 titled "The Computer Virus Crises", 160 pg, $19.95.  Has anyone 
 seen this yet (it's a new title).  Is it worthwhile?  I may be
 teaching a networking class in the spring, and it would 
 seem reasonable to look at virus, worms, trojan horses, etc.

 However, a number of years ago I swore I would never adopt a 
 VNR book, due to their desk copy policy for faculty, so I 
 would not do so now, unless its *very* worthwhile.

 thanks in advance -
