Applied Cryptography, for those who don't read the internet news, is a book written by Bruce Schneier last year.
Schneier has gathered academic research, internet gossip, and everything he could find on cryptography into one 600-page jumble.
Cryptography is a hot topic just now, and Schneier stands alone in having written a book on it which can be browsed: it is not too dry.
Schneier gives prominence to applications with large sections.
Playing loose with the facts is a serious problem with Schneier.
Schneier aimed to provide a "Comprehensive reference work for modern cryptography." Comprehensive it is.
