About this Item

First edition, first impression, retaining the rare jacket, of this classic work in the field of number theory. "The greatest impact of [Wright's] work was through his book with G. H. Hardy, An Introduction to the Theory of Numbers (1938), always referred to as 'Hardy and Wright'. This book was widely praised by number theory specialists for its excellent exposition, very broad range, and good judgement in the selection of material. Its continuing sales, through five editions (the last in 1979), was testimony to the great use made of it by mathematicians generally, as a textbook and as a work of reference" (ODNB). Octavo. Original blue cloth, spine lettered in gilt. With dust jacket. A fine copy in good jacket, somewhat chipped and torn, spine panel darkened and a little soiled, all intact without repair and with price intact.
