Im interested in getting some books for Christmas
Im currently learning all about viruses – malware – spyware – adware.
I would love to get a good book or two and not some dud by mistake.

I will be using them to advise my boss on virus protection and spyware protection.

Malware by ed skoudis was recommended
Viruses reveled by c david harly looks to old?
The art of computer virus research and defense by peter szor looks good but not out yet.

Any suggestions ?

Amazon.com has some good suggestions for viruses:
