A Hacker's Mind

New York Times best-selling author and legendary cybersecurity expert Bruce Schneier redefines "hacking," extending it beyond computers to the fundamental rules governing our society. In *A Hacker's Mind*, Schneier reveals how powerful actors exploit inherent vulnerabilities—"loopholes"—in systems from tax laws and financial markets to political processes for personal advantage. This eye-opening analysis exposes the widespread nature of these hidden hacks, detailing their threats to democracy and stability. Schneier further explores the catastrophic potential when artificial intelligence adopts a hacker's mindset, yet also offers a path to harness AI and human understanding to rebuild resilient systems and forge a more equitable world.
