If you want to make sure you know the material before you take the exam, this book is very good. However, the presentation of the material is very dry, and the CD-ROM materials only work on Windows (I'm a Mac/Linux guy). Some people may say that the material is extremely boring to begin with, but I have found other books that cover the same topics in a relatively more interesting way.

I used this book as a reference guide for when I felt I didn't know a certain subject as deep as I needed to. It is a good resource if you want to drop the money on it. I recommend Mike Meyers Passport to CISSP in addition to help you prepare for a tough exam. I have to give this book a positive rating as I did pass the exam. Good luck.

I am a 25 year old infosec dude and found this book to be the only one necessary. I did practice exams online after reading through the ~1000 pages Shon Harris has put together. It reads well, and is not entirely boring. I think that anyone can pass the exam with just this book, but you can't be an imbecile. I have written exploit code before, researched vulnerabilities, and have been messing around with hacking since the 90's when I was in high school. So, many of the technical stuff I knew very ...
