This second edition is a corrected and extended version of the first. It is a textbook for students, as well as a reference book for the working mathematician, on cohomological topics in number theory. In all it is a virtually complete treatment of a vast array of central topics in algebraic number theory. New material is introduced here on duality theorems for unramified and tamely ramified extensions as well as a careful analysis of 2-extensions of real number fields.
|In the words of a reviewer: "This monograph gives a very complete treatment of a vast array of cental topics in algebraic number theory
There is so much material written down systematically which was known to the experts, but whose detailed proof did not actually exist in the literature (most notable amongst these is the celebrated duality theorem of Poitou and Tate)”
