-It's a very good idea if you have some knowledge of cryptography
-*before* trying to use the library. This is an area where it is very
-easy to make mistakes, and where things are often subtle and/or
-counterintuitive. Obviously the library tries to provide things at a
-high level precisely to minimize the number of ways things can go
-wrong, but naive use will almost certainly not result in a secure
-system.
-
-Especially recommended are:
-
-- *Cryptography Engineering*
- Niels Ferguson, Bruce Schneier, and Tadayoshi Kohno
-
-- *Security Engineering -- A Guide to Building Dependable Distributed Systems*
- Ross Anderson
-
-- *Handbook of Applied Cryptography*
- Alfred J. Menezes, Paul C. Van Oorschot, and Scott A. Vanstone
