Prerequisites for

Disappearing Cryptography: Being and Nothingness on the Net
Wayner, Peter. 1996, 1st edition. 306 pages.
Note: I have not read the newer 2nd edition (release date May 2002).
Categories: Steganography
Disappearing Cryptography details techniques on hiding information (steganography), hiding communications (thwarting traffic analysis), sharing secrets (threshold cryptography) and deniability. Small sections of this book seem impractical, but on the whole it is quite interesting and a worthy read. You don't need much of a computer science background to understand this book. When faced with the occasional equation, you can skip it without missing anything important.
