Number Theory in Science and Communication: With Applications in Cryptography, Physics, Digital Information, Computing, and Self-Similarity
Schroeder, Manfred. 1997, 3rd edition. 420 pages.
Categories: Mathematics, Top Picks |
Number Theory in Science and Communication is now in its third edition (97), and has kept up with advances
since its original publication in 1984.
While not primarily a cryptography book, it is a great primer for anyone who wants to understand
the mathematics behind crypto (such as residues, Galois fields,
primitive roots, indexes, the Chinese Remainder Theorem, etc).
