Neal Koblitz is a co-inventor of one of the two most popular forms
of encryption and digital signature, and his autobiographical
memoirs are collected in this volume. Besides his own personal
career in mathematics and cryptography, Koblitz details his travels
to the Soviet Union, Latin America, Vietnam and elsewhere;
political activism; and academic controversies relating to math
education, the C. P. Snow "two-culture" problem, and mistreatment
of women in academia. These engaging stories fully capture the
experiences of a student and later a scientist caught up in the
tumultuous events of his generation.
