Indeed the real question is what level do you seek? For the latest and
greatest
in techniques you will really only find that in research papers and talks.
If you
are looking for an overview that that book will work. For something that might
be a little more in depth you can also look at one that I like lately:

Intrusion Detection by Edward Amoroso.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0966670078/qid=912720632/sr=1-2/002-8
892539-7163658

Even though the bio on the author might make you think he has a position
and no knowledge, he does know his stuff.
