Zusammenfassung
"There is a thorough bibliography, which is not surprising for a work that is in essence a review of the current literature. The book is well laid out, illustrated with useful figures and tables, and has a good index. Overall, this is a concise and interesting explanation of the complex series of processes that are required to translate a simple tap-and-go payment into a secure mobile financial transaction." (David B. Henderson, Computing Reviews, February, 2019)
