Review

From the reviews of the second edition:

“In the second edition of this text, Koblitz presents a wide-ranging introduction to the theory of p-adic numbers and functions. ... there are some really nice exercises that allow the reader to explore the material. ... And with the exercises, the book would make a good textbook for a graduate course, provided the students have a decent background in analysis and number theory.” (Donald L. Vestal, The Mathematical Association of America, April, 2011)
