Before these brilliant expositions, Minkowski's pioneering writings were accessible only to specialists. This classic two-volume work focuses primarily on geometric problems involving integers and algebraic problems approachable through geometrical insights. It demonstrates the simplicity and elegance of number theory proofs and theorems and illuminates many other algebraic and geometric topics.
