As near as I can tell, from the comments by Kahn and from looking at it, the new edition is _exactly_ the same as the 1967 edition, with the exception of one additional chapter. The last chapter covers the Enigma story in detail.

However, the public key cryptography revolution is covered in about two or three pages (or at least this is my recollection). Brief mention is made of Diffie, Hellman, etc., but nothing surprising or new.

The "cypher punks" mailing list isn't even mentioned, whines Timmy. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
