Blockchain Technology is still at its infancy when it comes to information. Current research and case studies on the Blockchain technology mirrors the very initial implementation of the technology and its feasibility. It is this implementation that has brought about changes in segments and processes that are within the financial institutions.It is the time we began to appreciate the contributions of Blockchain technology that has been very instrumental in powering the digital currency Bitcoin. The Blockchain Technology has been at the forefront of facilitating peer-to-peer transactions. This is without any form of intermediaries such as banking industries or any form of governing institution. By keeping the user’s information confidential, the Blockchain Technology plays a central role in validating as well as storing permanent records of all transactions made. This means that the personal information that is acquired here is private and safe . This ensures that all transactions that go through the system are transparent and free from all forms of corruption.
Despite the fact that many opportunities for the Blockchain require digital currency, Bitcoin is only one application of the greatest computer science-based innovation. The Blockchain system has the ability of holding any legal document ranging from title deeds, marriage certificates, birth certificates to even educational degree certificates among others. You can simply refer to it as a World Wide Ledger! The main reason for this is that it permits smart contracts, transactions, decentralized autonomous organizations, and government services among others. In other words, Blockchain Technology is the internet of everything that requires a ledger of everything. The Blockchain is open, global and distributed platform that fundamentally alters what we are able to do online, the manner in which we do it and who can take part. In this book, you will learn what Blockchain Technology is. We are going to discuss the key concept of Blockchain Technology including the mechanism by which this works. The book will also shed light into the various components of a Blockchain system, the risks associated with its adoption, promising examples of Blockchain-based application that use this technology as well as its future applications.

Title is misleading - No diagrams and lots of typos
I expected some math and diagrams to understand blockchain. This has a lot of paragraphs with typos about blockchain without core principles on how it works. If you want to know about it at a high level read, but to know how it works this isn't the text. Title is misleading.

Very poorly written with a lot of spelling mistakes
The book wasn't proof read whatsoever, it contains thousands of spelling and grammar errors. This makes it hard to follow the ideas.

This is an entirely average overview of the Blockchain algorithm, the thing that bitcoin and all the other new crypto currencies are based on. It is a mixture of both technical explanations and Mitnick's musings on what it all means for society, financial industry, insurance companies and so on.
Mitnick definitely knows what he's talking about and his explanations of all the technical stuff are OK, but suffice to say, the book lacks a single diagram, even in the sections where the meat of blockchain is explained. I personally do not think you can explain it in any level of technical detail without that.
In addition, this is probably the most poorly spelled book I've ever read in my life. The mistakes range from simple missing commas that change the meaning of what the author probably meant to say, to stuff that is so bad that you can't even figure out what he is talking about.
The truth, at this moment, is, that if you want a good technical overview of blockchain, you're better off looking up some YouTube videos – there just isn't a really great book out there, because most are intended for non–technical people like FinTech executives.

Not really for a novice
I think the author has to be more fundamental for some of us. He uses terms that are confusing. Better proofreading may help also.
