A very good start in the subject
Definetely, a must have if you want to write shareware. It's a pretty complete survey of methods and programs to protect your work.
I'd also want to point out the following:
1) I miss some crackmes in the companion CD.
2) In a next edition, that I hope gets released soon, It should include information specifically devoted to Windows XP and stuff. The section on softice might be too large in the current edition.
Let me insist, a must have.
Hope this help.

Good overview on software protection
Go and get this book if you're a shareware programmer. It includes a huge list of protection mechanisms, lots of information on available (commercial and shareware) software protection systems, a CD Rom with lots of protection related stuff.It's definitely worth the money and interesting for both programmers or people just interested in software protection. Let's hope the author will continue his work and come up with a 2nd edition soon.
