Each of the Handbook Of Information Security Management books stands alone.
There is no tie from one to the next. There could be added value in having
both since each would have added points of view, documentation and
information.

What if one has only worked with one subject for some years (eg. physical
security or cryptography) would it then be too hard to get the CISSP?

I see that there is a new volume of 'Info Sec Mgmt Handbook 4th Edition Vol
II'.
To read this one, do I need the 'Info Sec Mgmt Handbook 4th Edition Vol I' ?

Yours sincerely,
