Take any cryptography you read about in "Digital Fortress" with a big grain of salt. I haven't read "Digital Fortress" yet, but the cryptographic community has had some pretty bad things to say about it. It may be a good book (I enjoyed "Angels and Demons") but don't trust the crypto. My favorite crypto book is a kids novel: "Alvin's Secret Code" by Clifford B. Hicks. It's a fun story, and you learn basic cryptography along the way. Unfortunantly, you can't get it new anymore, but it's still available on the used market. |
