Summary: If only I'd had this book six months ago!
Comment: This is the book I needed when I started developing code using OpenSSL. As it was, I struggled through using the ropey on-line docs, combing the web for examples, and reading the source code for the "openssl" utility to try and work out how to use it.
When trying to come to grips with the OpenSSL toolkit, I searched in vain for something that provides a simple explanation of how everything fits together. I've now come to the conclusion that there's no such thing as a simple explanation - the subject is big enough that you just have to learn quite a lot before you can use it. But, this book comes as close as I think you could hope for.
If you're using OpenSSL, you *need* this book, it's got information on cryptography, the OpenSSL API, the toolkit, as well as candid comments about its strengths and weaknesses.
The book doesn't cover the SSL protocol: if you need that then I'd recommend the book "SSL and TLS Essentials" by Stephen Thomas, which complements this book well, as it goes into a lot of detail on the protocol without any information at all about the programming side.
