1. The Golden Ticket: P-NP and the search for impossible By: Lance Fortnow

2.  Non Technical introduction to P-NP, Its history and algorithmic implication.  Author traces back the origin of problem to Cold war year i.e. 1945.  The author discusses what the world would be like of P=NP. In this world, almost all of the technology we could ever imagine is possible, and computers can do incredible things for good and evil. Like cryptography. Overview

3.  Lance Fortnow makes what could be a fairly difficult and technical Maths/Computing issue light and accessible.  Many examples from diverse areas are given for understanding about the world of P and NP problems.  Real world examples including cryptography, finding large groups of friend on facebook and algorithms. What I Liked

4.  There is a big discussion on Quantum computing towards the end.  Intersting examples like the author has used a hypothetical world called “frenemy” to explain various NP problems.  P-NP problem is among the seven millenium problem. New Aspects

5.  He doesn’t actually tell you what P and NP means for a long time, untill page 87, just gives rather sideways definitions.  Golden Ticket" is written for the reader who has no knowledge of computational complexity, computer science, or mathematics.  Very strong Assumptions of the world where P=NP. Loop Holes

6. Do Read The Book It will help you in TOC ;)
