There has been considerable progress on many fronts during the past five years. However, the main parts of the book remain unaffected by these developments. Of the wealth of new topics possible, I have chosen some aspects of cryptographic protocols: elections over a computer network and protocols without computers. Furthermore, the references have been updated and errors and inaccuracies, have been corrected.
