Summary

One of the latest mathematical discoveries was the proof, by Andrew Wiles, of Fermat's last theorum, a 300-year old conjecture that had eluded professional mathematicians as well as serious amateurs. This revised edition covers newer developments and unsolved problems.

Algebraic Number Theory and Fermat's Last Theorem by Ian Stewart

First published in 1979 and written by two distinguished mathematicians with a special gift for exposition, this book is now available in a completely revised third edition. It reflects the exciting developments in number theory during the past two decades that culminated in the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. Intended as a upper level textbook, it is also eminently suited as a text for self-study.
