Protocols that remain zero-knowledge when many instances are executed concurrently are called concurrent zero-knowledge, and this book is devoted to their study. The book presents constructions of concurrent zero-knowledge protocols, along with proofs of security. It also shows why "traditional" proof techniques (i.e., black-box simulation) are not suitable for establishing the concurrent zero-knowledge property of "message-efficient" protocols.

From the reviews: "Protocols that remain zero-knowledge when many instances are executed concurrently are called concurrent zero-knowledge. This book is very well suited for the reader who wants to know the state of the art of concurrent zero-knowledge proofs. ... The book could be used as a textbook on advanced topics in cryptography. It is highly recommended to the newcomer in the field who wants technical information, and to the researcher in the area who would like a survey on concurrent zero-knowledge."
