This is an introduction to the mathematics involved in the
intriguing field of cryptology, the science of writing and reading
secret messages which are designed to be read only by their
intended recipients. It is written at an elementary level, suitable
for beginning undergraduates, with careful explanations of all the
concepts used. The basic branches of mathematics required,
including number theory, abstract algebra and probability, are used
to show how to encipher and decipher messages, and why this works,
giving a practical as well as theoretical basis to the subject.
Challenging computer programming exercises are also included. The
book is written in an engaging style which will appeal to all, and
also includes historical background on some of the founders of the
subject. It will be of interest both to students wishing to learn
cryptology per se, and also to those searching for practical
applications of seemingly abstract mathematics.
