Description

This new, completely revised edition of a classic text introduces all elements necessary for understanding The Proof (Title of a PBS series dedicated to the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem) as well as new development and unsolved problems. Written by two distinguished mathematicians, Ian Stewart and David Tall, this book weaves together the historical development of the subject with a presentation of mathematical techniques. The result is a solid introduction to one of the most active research areas of mathematics for serious math buffs and a textbook accessible to undergraduates.
