Depth understanding beyond the basics

If you're a serious .NET Developer, and you care about security, I think this is an excellent work.There are a couple of books on .NET Security out there that provide good coverage of .NET Security, but pretty much cover the basic concepts from the on-line docs. I really appreciated this book exactly because it goes beyond the docs, providing a very balanced mix of breadth topics, with depth coverage. The author does a very nice job introducing, explaining, and demonstrating concepts. I also really liked this book because its not a behemoth. It is a very reasonable 300 pages, a length I can actually read through and digest.Code samples are short and clear (what I refer to as sandboxed examples). They are not huge scenario based examples where you loose the point amongst all the helper code to make it look 'real'. Just show me how the concept works, and I'll write my own 'real' code, thank you very much.I thought the topic coverage had the appropriate levels of breadth (.NET Security, ASP.NET framework security, Crypto), and depth.
