"The Joy of Cryptography is an undergraduate textbook in cryptography. This book grew out of lecture notes I developed for the cs427 course at Oregon State University (and before that, cs473 at the University of Montana)"
Summary
The pedagogical approach is anchored in formal definitions/proof of security, but in a way that I believe is more accessible than what is "traditional" in crypto. All security definitions are written in a unified and simplified "game-based" style. For an example of what security definitions look like in this style, see the index of security definitions (which will make more sense after reading chapters 2 & 4).
