As "Cryptography Decrypted" is a great "from the ground up" tutorial in cryptography for the non-technical, so "Cryptography Demystified" is for those with a computer science or math degree. The author crafts notions of cryptographic security, then leads you down less-than traditional, but highly illuminating paths to get there. This book is very unconventional and refreshing original – certainly not another rehash of introductory cryptography topics. You’ll find yourself carefully reading every page. While a math background in statistics, calculus, linear algebra, and automata theory is not required to absorb this book cover to cover, it does help you complete the exercises. 58 pages contain the detailed solutions to the chapter questions. Go get this book.
