Singh, Simon

SUMMARY

"[This book is] lucidly written, taking just as long as it needs to explain some abstruse problem but not so long as to make one glance wistfully ahead of the page....[Singh] strikes a judicious balance between the historically significant...and the historically insignificant but entertainingly racy....Like the baby bear's porridge, the dosage is just right."Singh, Simon is the author of 'The Code Book: The Science of Secrecy from Ancient Egypt to Quantum Cryptography', published 2000 under ISBN 9780385495325 and ISBN 0385495323.
