……关于 Elizebeth Smith Friedman 的精彩传记，她是一位彻彻底底的无名英雄，也是密码学这门科学的奠基人之一。她在海岸警卫队带领的团队与图灵同时期破译了 Enigma 密码机。《The Woman Who Smashed Codes》，Jason Fagone 著。
…interesting biography of Elizebeth Smith Friedman who is a total unsung hero and the founding mother of the science of cryptography. Her team with the Coast Guard cracked enigmas in parallel to Turing. The Woman Who Smashed Codes, by Jason Fagone.

also, a book just came out about Elizebeth Friedman and how a lot of her contributions to cryptology and the birth of sigint in general have been erased from histroy: https://www.amazon.com/Woman-Who-Smashed-Codes-Outwitted-ebo... it's supposed to be very good, but I just started it last night so don't have much of an opinion yet.
