Applied Quantum CryptographyApplied Quantum Cryptography

Using the quantum properties of single photons to exchange binary keys between two partners for subsequent encryption of secret data is an absolutely novel technology. Only a few years ago quantum cryptography – or better: quantum key distribution (QKD) – was the domain of basic research laboratories at universities. But during the last few years things changed. QKD left the laboratories and was picked up by more practical oriented teams that worked hard to develop a practically applicable technology out of the astonishing results of basic research.

The Imagination Challenge: Strategic Foresight and Innovation in the Global Economy Companies constantly present technological developments-new materials, new mechanisms, and new ways to enhance existing products and services. Yet these seldom lead to truly new ideas. Why? Humans are all born with creative instincts, but in the interest of efficient and predictable productivity, institutions such as schools and businesses routinely hinder those impulses. The most innovative products and services, author Alexander Manu argues, arise out of the behaviors of play--the ability to imagine, without limits, the question "What if…?"

Abstract Algebra: An IntroductionAbstract Algebra: An Introduction

Loved this subject and the book, it has clear proofs and plenty of descriptions of concepts, and it works from the very beginning and builds on itself. I would reccomend it. It is an expensive book, but I got it for a much better price here on amazon, I think it was less than half of what they were asking at the UCLA bookstore. I will certainly be buying my textbooks here from now on.
