This book takes the unique approach of examining number theory as it developed from the 17th through 19th centuries, leading to an understanding of today's research problems on the basis of their historical evolution. With its historical framework and narrative style, Goldman's book makes both a lovely resource for mathematicians and an introductory text for students and teachers.
