Algebraic Number Theory (Grundlehren der mathematischen Wissenschaften, 322)

A literal whole page fell out of the book during the course of normal use almost immediately after receiving the book. Thankfully still eligible for a return/replacement. Hopefully my next copy does not have this issue again.

The content is perfect. Have everything you need for Class Field theory with a bonus chapter about Zeta function.

It arrived for a little bit more than one month. I opened it just several days. But the book becomes awful now. Disappointed. Can I exchange for another one?

The best !

This book is great. It takes a different approach than some other texts I have recently read but is an excellent starting point for those interested in AN.

After having no fun with Lang's text "Algebraic Number Theory" I began seking out something more complete and which was full of quality exposition. As a result of Amazon's approach to marketing towards members, I was recommended this book and decided quickly that I must have it. This book is marvelously well written, examples are kept to an un-overwhelming minimum, the problems are not trivial (at least to me) and in fact I feel this is the kind of book on par with, say, Paulo Ribenboim's "Classical Theory of Algebraic Numbers" since these are both the type of book you would want to take with you on a long trip or as Paulo says, "while stranded on a desert island". This book is by no means intended for those who are not fluent in both Number Theory as well as Algebra, both at the graduate level and obviously for those who are Mahematically gifted. I highly recommend this book to graduate students interested in Algebraic number theory as well as those needing a splendid reference.

This book is basically all you need to learn modern algebraic number theory. You need to know algebra at a graduate level (Serge Lang's Algebra) and I would recommend first reading an elementary classical Algebraic number theory book like Ian Stewart's Algebraic Number Theory, or Murty and Esmonde's Problem's in Algebraic Number theory.

Already known to be a classic, and rightly so.
