Edward Singh was a college dropout who threatened the security of some of the most secret and powerful computer systems in the western world. Posing as a student at the University of Surrey, he hijacked their computers to penetrate banks, universities, multi-national companies and atomic weapons manufacturers. He narrowly avoided prosecution under the Official Secrets Act. This book provides an analysis of the personalities, technologies and political issues involved in hacking.
