From the reviews:
"This book is worth reading. . Clarke provides an architectural description with many tradeoffs that may help in building such a system. This book, with its clear focus on transparent authentication, brings together a lot of ideas and insights." (A. Mariën, ACM Computing Reviews, March, 2012)

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Watermark-DRM, a „soft” copy protection. This means that there are no technical restrictions to prevent illegal distribution. However, there is a personalised watermark embedded in the eBook that can be used to identify the purchaser of the eBook in the event of misuse and to provide evidence for legal purposes.
