Fundamentals of cryptography : introducing mathematical and algorithmic foundations

Fundamentals of cryptography : introducing mathematical and algorithmic foundations / Duncan Buell.

Cryptography, as done in this century, is heavily mathematical. But it also has roots in what is computationally feasible. This unique and accessible textbook balances the theorems of mathematics against the feasibility of computation. Cryptography is something one actually does, not a mathematical...
