Product Description
This book is intended for an introductory course in number theory, primarily taken by mathematics majors. The author wrote the text with four main goals in mind. He wrote a book that is both easy to read and easy to teach from. The author also aims to ease students into using proofs, and to develop a self-confidence in mathematics surrounding the difficulty of mathematical proof. Although the main users of this text will be mathematics students, a large audience could easily use the book.

 Good book on a standard subject November 24, 2004

I thought this book was a very good book on elementary number theory. It covered all the standard topics for such a book. The author was clear in his presentation of topics.
Not a bad book, but horribly expensive October 21, 2003

I had to get this book for an undergraduate class in number theory, so I had no choice but to shell out the cash. Price aside, it really is a decent textbook. It is easy enough to understand for even a non math person, and there is a nice range of easy, medium, and hard problems. Still, although I haven't looked at too many other textbooks, I bet you could find a book just as good for half the price.
 Plenty of choices... August 20, 2003
Another thin book on a standard subject with horrendous price. Another cheap effort hope to reap in good cash. Look elsewhere, plenty of choices.
