Hi,
I am no expert on the matter, but on my humble opinion,
I think you can rely on this book because most of its content is about
fundamental concepts,
not implementation details ( padding, message encoding, ... ) for which
you can find updates on RSA Labs PKCS
http://www.rsa.com/rsalabs/node.asp?id=2124
or other web sites.

Wow, awesome. I just read the foreword and the preface before getting to work.
They're very well written, and now I'm excited for the coming chapters for sure
:-)
I'll probably read it over the coming week or two. But I'm mildly worried about
the date the book was written, which was 1996; and though it was updated in
2001, that was still a long time ago now. I wonder to what degree the material
will be outdated, or to what degree modern day material will be completely
missing.
