This book introduces a wide range of up-to-date cryptological concepts along with the mathematical ideas that are behind them. The new and old are organized around a historical framework. A variety of mathematical topics that are germane to cryptology (e.g., modular arithmetic, Boolean functions, complexity theory, etc.) are developed, but they do not overshadow the main focus of the book. Chapter topics cover origins, examples, and ideas in cryptology; classical cryptographic techniques; symmetric computer-based cryptology; public-key cryptography; and present practice, issues, and the future. For individuals seeking an up-close and accurate idea of how current-day cryptographic methods work.

Free Invitation to Cryptology
Great book, but there a few typos in important areas (like formulas), and I had to get it replaced once because the first copy I got wasn't bound well, had incorrectly cut pages, and was losing pages before I'd had it for long.

Nobody in my Cryptology class is very happy about this book, even the teacher. She says it is the best that is available that doesn't cost hundreds, but dang, it sure makes taking this class difficult. If you have a good teacher, you can probably get by with this book, but if the teacher isn't so great, you won't be able to teach yourself from this book.
The descriptions of how to solve the problems are vague, and the few given answers to the problems are sometimes wrong.
Skip this book if you can... but I know most classes require it, so it is not your choice!
