Synopsis
"As gripping as a good thriller." -- The Washington Post Unpack the science of secrecy and discover the methods behind cryptography--the encoding and decoding of information--in this clear and easy-to-understand young adult adaptation of the national bestseller that's perfect for this age of WikiLeaks, the Sony hack, and other events that reveal the extent to which our technology is never quite as secure as we want to believe. Coders and codebreakers alike will be fascinated by history's most mesmerizing stories of intrigue and cunning--from Julius Caesar and his Caeser cipher to the Allies' use of the Enigma machine to decode German messages during World War II. Accessible, compelling, and timely, The Code Book is sure to make readers see the past--and the future--in a whole new way. "Singh's power of explaining complex ideas is as dazzling as ever." -- The Guardian

    I can’t believe how fast I got this!!! I ordered it Saturday, and it was in my mailbox Monday!!! There was definitely extra care taken to wrap it so the boxes wouldn’t get crushed, which was really nice of this seller as well. And the note on it was a nice touch, and made me smile as well. Thank you so much!!! I’d definitely buy from this seller again!!! :)
