This book is designed as an introductory text to the world of TPMs and trusted computing, but it's far from the whole story. In this chapter, we'll discuss where to find additional resources of many kinds. These resources include software libraries to support use of the TPM, which are useful for implementing simple applications and generally giving TPM use a try; books and other materials that will help you learn more about related topics; and, for those who need to delve deeper, the specifications themselves, with an account of how to get the most out of them. Because so many of the resources referred to here are online, there is a high probability that some of the links will become obsolete at some point during the lifetime of this book. Updated links, along with other errata and additional content, will be available at http://digital-library.theiet.org/content/books/pc/ pbpc013e.
