Great book for new PGP or GPG users
I just got through reveiewing a great book on PGP and GPG on email encryption.
It's called PGP & GPG: Email for the Practical Paranoid by Michael W. Lucas, by No Starch Press ($24.95 list price).
I've had Phil Zimmerman's original book on PGP for almost a decade, but I'd recommend this book to any one new to PGP-related technologies or to Windows or Linux/Unix users trying to get up and running quickly.
Excellent tutorial, quick read, and enough humor to make it enjoyable. The publishers sent it to me a few months ago to review. I'm sorry I didn't read it then. It's an easy recommendation to friends and co-workers who want to encrypt and authenticate their email.
