Book advice

[Johan Wevers]

Hello,

Not directly related to GnuPG, but does anyone here know the book
"Handbook of Applied Cryptography" fromn A.J. Menezes, P.C. van Oorschoot
and S.A. Vanstone, printed in 1996? I found it on eDonkey and wanted to
know if someone knows if it is advisable. It appears quite mathematical
in its approach, much more so than Schneier's "Applied Cryptography".
