View source for Dark Side of Software Engineering

List of chapters:

Part 1:
* Subversion - focuses on people who wish the software project to fail; gives statistics on motivations for subversion, examples of situations, and suggestions for dealing with subversion.
* Lying - lying is a chilling but ubiquitous activity, with outcomes that range in seriousness; the chapter explores survey results on motivations for lying and various responses to deal with it.
* Hacking - covers examples of hacking, definitions, important concepts, intellectual property, hacker subculture, how hackers make money, social engineering; specific mention of Operation Aurora
* Theft of Information - ranges from subtle to blatant; often done to accomplish a specific goal; opens a much broader discussion of intellectual property.
* Espionage - not a common occurrence, even in banking/defense, at least on software projects; but included nonetheless.
* Disgruntled employees and sabotage - this topic focuses on the "who," not on the "what" - a disgruntled employee may utilize a number of methods, but the book spends a chapter discussing the particulars of disgruntled employees.
* Whistle-blowing - this is not an act of wrong-doing, but an act of ''exposing'' wrong-doing; but whistle-blowing is not always an inherently ''good'' activity; it can be misguided; leaks are sometimes driven by ulterior motives
