✦ Synopsis

Cryptographic techniques have applications far beyond the obvious uses of encoding and decoding information. For Internet developers who need to know about capabilities, such as digital signatures, that depend on cryptographic techniques, theres no better overview than Applied Cryptography, the definitive book on the subject. Bruce Schneier covers general classes of cryptographic protocols and then specific techniques, detailing the inner workings of real-world cryptographic algorithms including the Data Encryption Standard and RSA public-key cryptosystems. The book includes source-code listings and extensive advice on the practical aspects of cryptography implementation, such as the importance of generating truly random numbers and of keeping keys secure.

I feel totally ripped off. What idiot would publish code these days with no CD or download. I would glad to have paid $40 more to get a book that comes with a CD. Now I have to, get this, snail mail the author and wait 4 weeks to get the CD. Serves me right for not reading the negative reviews b

Essentially a glossary. Repetitious, drawn-out, painful explanation of terms. Nothing serious, nothing in-depth. Sounds professional but hollow. The only strong point of this book is that it includes many, many terms; useful from a "talk" point of view, but useless from an "applied" point of view.
