Summary A well written book that addresses the intended purpose. With a good suite of test routines it does serve as an industrial strength API, however some known weakness in algorithms would bene t the reader. A beginner or intermediate level C/C++ programmer can follow the text. Concepts in C++ such as assertions are explained which could serve as a review for a beginner programmer. Understandably the book does not discuss ECC, an industrial strength Crypto API with ECC is a non trivial task. The book focuses on asymmetrical algorithms with one chapter devoted to symmetrical algorithm - Rijndael. Certain concepts such as modes are not explained in this text, which makes it necessary for the reader to refer to other books on Cryptography. The author has devoted a chapter in discussing C++, instead I would have preferred a good treatment of symmetrical encryption.
