He pulls from solid research and real world experiences. I plan on reading anything he writes, and anyone he mentions that I should read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must read (not just for security professionals) *by F***O on August 2, 2018* 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. ## Frequently Bought Together - Social Engineering: The Science of Human Hacking - The Art of Invisibility: The World's Most Famous Hacker Teaches You How to Be Safe in the Age of Big Brother and Big Data - The Art of Deception: Controlling the Human Element of Security --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/73529123-social-engineering-the-science-of-human-hacking](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/73529123-social-engineering-the-science-of-human-hacking) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
