The book explores how attacks using computers affect the physical world in ways that were previously only possible through physical means.

Great book that finally address the subject of Operational Technology cyber security. This is a space of rapid convergence and Mr. Loukas does a great job at keeping the information useful. I have recommended to dozens of colleges in this space.
Introduction on the various methods for cyber-physical attacks. I would not recommend this book for professionals in the field because it doesn't offer much more than an overview and as such is quickly dated like the examples in the book. But it is a comprehensive treatment of the field and as such a useful book for education including questions and exercises per chapter.
Excellent coverage of the topic
Extremely well written and uniquely insightful; I would list as one of my top three books to have if dealing with the security of critical infrastructure.
