Very good The book was purchased as a gift for a teen very interested in all aspects of cyber tools and outputs. She was delighted by the book, and had no negative comments.I bought this for my son who is 14 years ... I bought this for my son who is 14 years old and interested in cryptology. Some part may be challenging for him although it is for 12 and up. I had to review permutation/combination (basics of statistics?) to keep up with the content half way through. It is well written, engaging, and informative.I still read a portion of it and found it very well written and easy to understand I accidentally purchased the young adult adaptation instead of the original book. I still read a portion of it and found it very well written and easy to understand.
