Book Reviews of Cryptography Decrypted

Book Review: Amazing...simply amazing
Summary: 5 Stars

I have yet to complete a computer book...EVER. I've picked through tons and tons of books, but this is the first computer book I've been able to complete. Why? Because it's SO readable! The authors don't dump terminology on you every other paragraph (ala O'Reilly) but instead try to relate what could have been difficult concepts into simple to understand terms. Bob, Alice, and the evil Black Hat show up in diagrams throughout the book reinforcing what you've learned in each chapter. I'm feeling prepped enough to take on Schneier's Applied Cryptography book, and interested enough in the topic to stick to it.
