This is a translation of Landau's famous Elementare Zahlentheorie with added exercises by Paul T. Bateman and Eugene E. Kohlbecker.This three-volume classic work is reprinted here as a single volume.
These three excellently printed and arranged volumes form an addition of the highest importance to the literature of the theory of numbers. With them, the reader familiar with the basic elements of the theory of functions of a real and complex variable, can follow many of the astonishing recent advances in this fascinating field. His interest is enlisted at once and sustained by the accuracy, skill, and enthusiasm with which Landau marshals the analytic facts and simplifies as far as possible the inevitable mass of details …The mathematical world owes a great debt of gratitude to Professor Landau for rendering accessible so many of the recent splendid achievements in the theory of numbers."" - G. D. Birkhoff, Bulletin of the AMS
