This book provides an introduction to the subject suitable for senior undergraduates and beginning graduate students in mathematics. The material is presented in a straightforward, clear and elementary fashion, and the approach is hands on, with an explicit computational flavour. Prerequisites are kept to a minimum, and numerous examples illustrating the material occur throughout the text. References to suggested reading and to the biographies of mathematicians who have contributed to the development of algebraic number theory are given at the end of each chapter. There are over 320 exercises, an extensive index, and helpful location guides to theorems and lemmas in the text.Algebraic number theoryNumber theoryAlgebraic number theory.Number theory.512/.74Alaca Saban1964-621886Williams Kenneth S55215MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818338603321Introductory algebraic number theory1424454UNINA
