This is a substantially revised and updated introduction to
arithmetic topics, both ancient and modern, that have been at the
centre of interest in applications of number theory, particularly
in cryptography. As such, no background in algebra or number theory
is assumed, and the book begins with a discussion of the basic
number theory that is needed. The approach taken is algorithmic,
emphasising estimates of the efficiency of the techniques that
arise from the theory, and one special feature is the inclusion of
recent applications of the theory of elliptic curves. Extensive
exercises and careful answers are an integral part all of the
chapters.
