{"product_id":"number-fields-9783319902326","title":"Number Fields","description":"\u003cp\u003eRequiring 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.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNow 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.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFrom the reviews: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"A thoroughly delightful introduction to algebraic number theory\" - \u003cb\u003eEzra Brown in the \u003ci\u003eMathematical Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"An excellent basis for an introductory graduate course in algebraic number theory\" - \u003cb\u003eHarold Edwards in the \u003ci\u003eBulletin of the American Mathematical Society\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDaniel A.
