Colophon

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The image on the cover of Malicious Mobile Code is a Trojan horse. Over the years, the term "Trojan horse" has come to refer to outside infiltration in almost any form. The original Trojan horse, however, was actually a very large, hollow, wooden horse created by the Greek army as a supposed gift to the city of Troy during the Trojan War in the sixteenth century. The Greek army retreated from the city and left the horse outside the gate. The people of Troy thought it was either a gift from the gods or a peace offering from the Greeks, and so they wheeled the horse inside the city. That night, Greek soldiers emerged from the hollow structure and opened the gates to the rest of the army, who infiltrated the city while the Trojans slept, unaware of their impending fate.
