An Introduction to Cryptography
Editorial Reviews
Review
…Mollin has written a readable text on a subject that can be challenging. It deserves your attention.
- The Cryptogram
This is a great book! It can be used in many ways: for a university course at one extreme, and as selective light reading for pleasure at the other. The author's enthusiasm carries the reader along clearly and easily, spilling over to scores of fascinating, beautifully written footnotes, which include more than fifty mini-biographies. …excellent and highly recommended.

I want to congratulate you on your superb volume in 'An Introduction to Cryptography.' This is a fine addition to the field. Upon my recommendation, my personal firm has purchased several copies, it's so great. ... Your explanation in the section of 'Coin Flipping via Exponentiation' was brilliantly orchestrated.
