Reviews

... Der Autor, der ... vielen Lesern dieses Rundbriefs gut bekannt sein wird, hat hier ein kleines Werk vorgelegt, das man wohl am Besten als Lesebuch zu algebraischen Aspekten der Kryptographie mit offentlichem Schlussel charakterisieren kann. ... Mit zunehmender Schwierigkeit des Material werden die Ausfuhrungen dabei skizzenhafter und beschranken sich immer starker auf den Hinweis auf entsprechende Quellen, was den Charakter eines guten Lesebuchs , wie ich es oben bezeichnet habe, ausmachen sollte. Das Buch eignet sich damit selbst fur advanced undergraduates , wie es im Klappentext heisst, als Einstieg und erster Auberblick uber ein Gebiet, in dem sich in den letzten Jahren auf uberraschende Weise praktische Anwendungsmoglichkeiten fur tief innermathematische Themen ergeben haben. Hans-Gert Grabe, Computeralgebra Rundbrief 1999, Issue 25
