Well written! Good entry point to Cryptography. The author did a good job distilling complicated concepts for people who are not used to heavy mathematical notations of number theory.

Very well written book explaining principles used in modern cryptography. I personally would appreciate a bit more mathematical approach, but especially for developers this must be an excellent book.

Because of the book. I wanted to buy the book. If it was published by other publisher, I would buy it there.

Still waiting for the book to arrive. After getting in touch with the customer service I was told to keep waiting because of delays due to the pandemic. Hope to have the book with me soon.

Very interesting book
Anonymous Customer - 09/12/2021
Not only is this book a clear description of contemporary crypto, but the price included the book as a PDF and e-book.
Anonymous Customer - 05/16/2021
As relatively new to crypto found this a good guide. Some of the latter chapters seemed to dive down into a lot of detail which for a first pass was too much but will be using this for future reference.
Marco Z - 10/03/2020
My everyday job is to explain to end users how what is and how to use HSMs that come with a load of cryptographic algorithms. This book gave me some interesting ideas on how to explain complex concepts in simple terms. Very well written

Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
