| SUMMARY |

| Summary |
"This very well-written book is recommended to graduate or final-year undergraduate students intended to start research work on both theoretical and experimental cryptography. Most of the cryptographic protocols are illustrated by various examples and implemented using the open-source algebra software Sage. The book provides a rigorous introduction to the mathematics used in cryptography and covers almost all modern practical cryptosystems. Also, the book is certainly a valuable resource for practitioners looking for experimental cryptography with a computer algebra system." ―Abderrahmane Nitaj (LMNO, Université de Caen Basse Normandie), IACR book reviews, February 2014 "It would make a great first course in cryptography but it is also easy enough to read to make it suitable for solitary study. … Overall this is an excellent book. It is far from the theorem-proof format and it does try to explain the ideas and motivate the reader. The pattern of mixing some theory followed by some practice is good at keeping the less theory-minded reader rolling along as the need for the theory becomes all too apparent. … this is a really good book. If you want to master cryptography, this is a great place to start." |
