Critics Review
Review from previous edition Review from previous edition Overall, this book is a good nontechnical introduction to cryptography. The author covers essential topics, presents the ideas clearly, and provides problems for further explorations and a good bibliography of other sources * MAA Review *
It is a very leisurely reading, well-structured and very detailed. It does not assume any mathematical knowledge, making it suitable for being used as a manual for a course on introduction to cryptography * Vicente Muñoz, the European Mathematical Society *
On a page per page basis it actually represents great value, and should achieve a long shelf life as both textbook and good reference source In terms of a score; for students a 9.5, practitioners 8.5 and general interest readers 8.5, giving an overall average of 9⁄10. Overall, an excellent book * Mike Rees MBCS CITP, The British Computer Society *
Everyday Cryptography: Fundamental Principles and Applications is an excellent reference * Jawa Eyes *
This book is intended to be introductory, self-contained and widely accessible. … A reader of this book will not only be able to understand the everyday use of cryptography, but also be able to interpret future developments in this fascinating and crucially important area of technology. * MathSciNet *
