Book Overview

This book is intended as a text for a course on cryptography with emphasis on algebraic methods. It is written so as to be accessible to graduate or advanced undergraduate students, as well as to scientists in other fields. The first three chapters form a self-contained introduction to basic concepts and techniques. Here my approach is intuitive and informal. For example, the treatment of computational complexity in Chapter 2, while lacking formalistic...

Excellent, but only if you have extensive knowledge of math

The textbook is intended for students with extensive knowledge of number theory, field theory, and algebraic techniques. It is terse and runs through the material using the definition-lemma-proof-theorem-proof method, with almost no examples. For students without the aforementioned prerequisites, the book is almost impossible to understand. The book can be great for students with the mathematical prerequisites and with sufficient mathematical maturity to understand elaborate definitions, theorems and proofs and who want to learn the material efficiently and quickly. The beginning student is advised to look for other, more elementary textbooks. The book contains many exercises with solutions at the end of the book.

Excelent

It's a very good book about cryptography and all the "stuff" about it. Neal Koblick is one of the invertor on ECC, so he knows about he talks.
