One of the best easy-read books on the subject is: "The Code Book" by Simon Singh ISBN 1-85702-879-1 Published in 1999 by "Fourth Estate, London". I got my copy from an Oxfam Bookshop so there might be later editions by now. A friend of mine has a slightly different edition. Simon Singh is an author & TV porducer rather than an actual code-maker or code-breaker, but he did extensive research to produce this book. I was on his emailing list some time ago, but that seems to have dropped off now, probably due to the advance of Twitter. A few minutes ago I went to visit his website http://simonsingh.net/ [a]http://simonsingh.net/[/a] and from the Cryptography menu item, near the top, you can visit the relevant pages. I'm at the moment downloading the CD-ROM add-on for the book, containing lots of nice tools and an Enigma animation and simulator. In turn he also has provided a page of links to other Codes & Cyphers pages: http://simonsingh.net/cryptography/crypto-links/ [a]http://simonsingh.net/cryptography/crypto-links/[/a] Bill.
