- Introduction to Cryptography with Java Applets takes a powerful approach of learning by examples. The core concepts are illustrated to undergraduate students through extensive examples.
- Typical cryptography textbooks either contain a lot of mathematics with no programming, or a lot of programming with very little math. Introduction to Cryptography with Java Applets balances the two subjects for true understanding.
- Dr. Bishop decided that an approach should be taken which would allow readers to cover the mathematical material in the text, to see the code which implemented those principles, then to simply open their browser and click on an HTML file to view the concepts they had just learned. The natural choice for this was to use Java applets--fully functional programs that run within a browser. No other cryptography book offers this kind of interactivity.
