Spring Break Reading Recommendation

"The Cuckoo's Egg" by Cliff Stoll. The true story of an astronomer who found a 75 cent accounting error at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory in the 80's and tracked it to an espionage hacker. It's a great mystery, and interesting to me since I lived in Berkeley at the time and remember when the story came out. Good information on the history of the Internet, Unix systems, Arapanet, Milnet, etc. with references to Berkeley hang-outs and culture.
Thanks to Michael Groom for this synopsis.
