The Design of Rijndael: AES - The Advanced Encryption Standard (Information Security and Cryptography)

This book, by the designers of the block cipher, presents Rijndael from scratch. The underlying mathematics and the wide trail strategy as the basic design idea are explained in detail and the basics of differential and linear cryptanalysis are reworked. Subsequent chapters review all known attacks against the Rijndael structure and deal with implementation and optimization issues. In addition, other ciphers related to Rijndael are presented.
