    Everyone knows that cyberspace is a wild frontier that can't be regulated, right? Everyone is wrong, and that's why we should all read Harvard Law prof (and famous Microsoft trial expert) Lawrence Lessig's eye-opening, jaw-dropping book Code, the best guide yet to the future that's heading our way like a frictionless freight train. For such an analytical book, it's also anecdote-studded and utterly fun to read.

Lessig leads us through the new controversies in intellectual property, privacy, free speech, and national sovereignty. What about a computer worm that can search every American's PC for top-secret NSA documents? It sounds obviously unconstitutional, but the worm code can't read your letters, bust down your door, scare you, or arrest anyone innocent. If you're not guilty, you won't even know you were searched. The coded architecture of the Net also enforces certain freedoms: via the Net, we have now globally exported a more extreme form of free speech than the First Amendment encodes in old-fashioned law. The once-important Pentagon Papers case would be meaningless today: instead of fighting to publish secret government documents, The New York Times could simply leak them to a USENET newsgroup. The Constitution is rife with ambiguities the framers couldn't have imagined, and virtual communities such as AOL and LamdaMOO are organizing themselves in ways governed largely by code--strikingly different ones.

We've got tough choices ahead. Do we want to protect intellectual property or privacy? How do we keep cyberporn from kids--by brain-dead decency laws, censoring filters, or code that identifies kid users? (Lessig advocates code.) Lessig demonstrates that legal structures are too slow and politics-averse to regulate cyberspace. "Courts are disabled, legislatures pathetic, and code untouchable." Code writers are the unacknowledged legislators of the new world, backed by the law and commerce. Lessig thinks citizens must recognize the need to be the architects of their own fate, or they'll find themselves coded into a world they never made. --Tim Appelo...

    As the Internet continues to grow at a frightening rate, the myriad of standards and technical rules for Internet use are being compiled as part of a huge list called RFC (Requests for Comments). Unfortunately, this is of little use to network professionals as it remains simply a massive list, with no analysis or guidance to make the standards relevant. This book, the first in the "Internet Standards Series", offers a standards tutorial, explaining what the RFCs are, the RFC editing process, different types of RFC, how standards are developed and selected, and where to find text of RFCs and Internet standards. It features a fully searchable and hyperlinked CD-ROM with book buyer-only access to relevant standards updates....

    This Administrator's Companion offers ready solutions to effectively plan, deploy and administer Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server. IT professionals can quickly get up to speed on system features, including Internet Mail Service and SMTP, and learn what they need to know about creating and running applications, and integrating Exchange with Windows 2000 Server Active Directory services, Office 2000, and Outlook "RM" 2000. Ample troubleshooting tips, scenario-based examples and step-by-step procedures help readers achieve on-the-job results. The companion CD-ROM includes a fully searchable electronic version of the book, plus sample materials and utilities....

    The Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server Administrator's Companion stands as the documentation of record for Microsoft's flagship e-mail and collaboration server product--short of programming. If you don't find here the Exchange 2000 Server information that you need, you pretty much can give up on printed documentation, and head right for the newsgroups.

Assuming familiarity with the Windows 2000 Active Directory infrastructure on which Exchange 2000 Server relies heavily, this book isn't intended as an introductory guide for Exchange Server newcomers. Instead, it's a definitive reference book for administrators who have complicated systems in place, or specific plans to create them. It includes explicit procedures here and there, but sections mainly aim to point you toward the parts of the program that have to do with given capabilities and phenomena--the authors direct readers to the Exchange objects tree when it's time to establish policies, for example. "Real World" sidebars aren't case studies, but instead vehicles for focusing on Exchange 2000 Server's mechanisms for dealing with imperfection (as in a mail environment that includes both Exchange 2000 Server and Exchange Server 5.5, or a network that sometimes delays heartbeat signals).

This book is a no-kidding weighty tome that roving consultants might not want to haul around. For situations like theirs, Microsoft Press publishes a book that's far smaller and equally excellent, if narrower in scope: Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server Administrator's Pocket Consultant. --David Wall

Topics covered: Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server, explained for the benefit of people who administer or deploy it. The authors explain how the server stores and moves messages, and integrates with the Windows 2000 infrastructure. Lots of attention goes to configuration of users, groups, and folders. Features--chat, instant messaging, and integration with the Windows 2000 public-key management capabilities--get covered, too, as do administrative chores, like backup and performance tuning....

    BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF CONTENT:
There is a significant need for a comprehensive book addressing the operational and day-to-day security management requirements. IM, used in enterprise networks can easily be reconfigured and allow for potentially nonstop exposure; they require the level of security be scrutinized carefully. This includes inherent security flaws in various network architectures that result in additional risks to otherwise secure converged networks. A few books cover components of the architecture, design, theory, issues, challenges, and recommended policies for IM security, but none of them address IM issues in a manner that is useful for the day-to-day operations and management of enterprise networks. IM Security is intended to bridge this gap.


UNIQUE FEATURE/RATIONALE
There are no current books that cover components of the architecture, design, theory, issues, challenges, and recommended policies for IM security. No book we know of addresses IM security in a manner useful for day-to-day operations and management of IM-capable networks in today's corporate environment....
