I've done a lot of programming in C and some programming in assembly and familiar with unix, but not to the extent that the author covers. He really takes advantage of system tools that I wasn't aware of and running programs, shellcode from extra memory in variables.
I need to go back into this book with a highlighter, pencil, post-it notes and bug the hell out of my professor who is a security expert.

I'm asking because I found a security book from 2008 and a few concepts were apparently outdated. I'm new to programming so I can't tell the difference D:
