A Pathway Into Number Theory 2nd Edition by R. P. Burn (PDF)

Description

Number theory is concerned with the properties of the natural numbers: 1, 2, 3 … During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, number theory became established through the work of Fermat, Euler and Gauss. With the hand calculators and computers of today the results of extensive numerical work are instantly available and the road leading to their discoveries may be traversed with comparative care. Now in its second edition, this book consists of a sequence of exercises that will lead readers from quite simple number work to the point where they can prove algebraically the classical results of elementary number theory for themselves. A modern secondary school course in mathematics is sufficient background for the whole book which is designed to be used as an undergraduate course in number theory to be pursued by independent study without supporting lectures.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This book is a carefully sequenced set of problems along with answers and a few comments. Burn uses those problems to introduce important number theory ideas. I enjoyed working through the problems to learn more about number theory. Most problems are accessible to those with a good high school mathematics background.

⭐It’s great!

⭐I started my journey with Apostol. However I felt it was always very slow going. R.P Burn built from basics, and I do mean the very basics. This made the theorems obvious, the proofs simple and my understanding intuitive. So naturally I bought his book on groups without hesitation :). I’m excited to re-learn group theory under his guidance.If you’re wondering to buy this book and/or thought number theory was hard … don’t wonder or fear. R.P Burn is here, and he will show you number theory is simple, clear and worthy to be revered.
