There's a Nutshell book with a green cover and a shark (can't remember
the title and don't have it here) that is a very nice gentle
introduction to security.
Looking at Amazon, it's called "Web Security and Commerce" so I guess
that one reason I have such good memories of it is that it would have
been very relevant to our work. Even so, I think it was pitched at so
high (or low, depending on your point of view ;-) a level that it was
also a good general introduction. Not sure it covered copy protection,
though.
