Paperback / softback
Description
Requiring no more than a basic knowledge of abstract algebra, this textbook presents the basics of algebraic number theory in a straightforward, "down-to-earth" manner.
It thus avoids local methods, for example, and presents proofs in a way that highlights key arguments.
There are several hundred exercises, providing a wealth of both computational and theoretical practice, as well as appendices summarizing the necessary background in algebra. Now in a newly typeset edition including a foreword by Barry Mazur, this highly regarded textbook will continue to provide lecturers and their students with an invaluable resource and a compelling gateway to a beautiful subject. From the reviews:“A thoroughly delightful introduction to algebraic number theory” – Ezra Brown in the Mathematical Reviews“An excellent basis for an introductory graduate course in algebraic number theory” – Harold Edwards in the Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society
