Kurzbeschreibung
This book surveys 20th century progress in classical number theory, from the proof of the Prime Number Theorem in 1896 through the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem, focusing on the part of number theory that addresses properties of integers and rational numbers.Rezension
From the book reviews:This is an impressive effort to provide an annotated history of a large chunk of number-theoretic research during the 20th century. This volume can serve as a useful resource to current researchers in rational number theory and as an inspiration to future generations of mathematicians. As such, it would be a worthwhile investment for any self-respecting research mathematics library. (Angel V. Kumchev, Mathematical Reviews, May, 2014)
The book is an outstanding piece of work; it contains 6849 references, as well as an author index and a subject index, and it will be an invaluable source both for mathematicians working in number theory as well as for those interested in the history of mathematics of the 20th century.
