A Fantastic Book, Useful and Inspiring
It would be difficult to overstate how much I enjoyed reading this book. As you can well imagine, the book (in my opinion) is fantastically well written and seamlessly blends useful knowledge alongside actionable techniques. However, I believe anyone reading this book will also be pleasantly surprised to find the author’s heart, humor, and humility so wonderfully expressed on every page. It is (again, in my opinion) a rare delight to find an author who clearly models such a healthy balance between passion and compassion in his writing and his work. Therefore, I believe that placing a copy of the book in plain view on your desk or bookshelf will serve as a dose of daily inspiration long after you’ve turned the final page.
Wonderful –
Pay attention to the literature.
Great book!

Must read (not just for security professionals)
You don’t even need to be interested in social engineering to benefit from (and enjoy reading) this book. In fact, about two thirds of it is devoted to building rapport, trust and influence no matter where you find yourself or what you’re trying to do. The author presents the scientific principles at just the right level and then reinforces them with an abundance of anecdotes, most of which are pretty amusing. I especially liked that he includes personal stories of both successes and failures. The result is a remarkably good read that is both informative and enjoyable. If you are security professional or simply concerned about your own security, then you really should read this book. For everyone else, chapters 2-8 will likely help you improve some aspect of your social skills.

Good intro
The book was a great start for someone who wants to learn about SE and human psychology. I gave it 3 stars because I was expecting more psychology insight.

I like this book very much, but the price is too high not everyone can afford it. I just want to say, if you’re new to cybersecurity you have to give it a try, because it let’s you know how you can h*ck someone’s brain.

Just finished the reading of “Social Engineering, The Science of Human Hacking”.Highly recommended.Thank you Christopher Hadnagy, it’s good to read you, loved the humor, loved the fact that you are one of the persons who wants to do good.I absolutely agree with your approach of making sure people feel better after having met you, even if it was about testing a pretext.I’m a slow reader so I pick my readings carefully 🙂 This one was recommended by Guillaume Caron, good choice.And I find it amazing that I could connect with Christopher on LinkedIn.Social engineering, deeply tight to pentesting, I did not expect this to be so deeply part of my world. But it definitely is.I hope you’ll be curious enough to learn more about this. You’ll be stronger and better after reading it.
