Book Description | Requiring no more than a basic knowledge of abstract algebra, this text presents the mathematics of number fields in a straightforward, pedestrian manner. It therefore avoids local methods and presents proofs in a way that highlights the important parts of the arguments. Readers are assumed to be able to fill in the details, which in many places are left as exercises. |
Editorial Review | A book unabashedly devoted to number fields is a fabulous idea. ... it goes without saying that the exercises in the book - and there are many - are of great importance and the reader should certainly do a lot of them; they are very good and add to the fabulous experience of learning this material. ... it's a wonderful book. |
