In the new edition of this highly successful book, Richard Crandall and Carl Pomerance provide updated material on theoretical, computational, and algorithmic fronts. The authors also list many new computational records and survey new developments in the theory of prime numbers.About the first edition:"It's rare to say this of a math book, but open Prime Numbers to a random page and it's hard to put down. Crandall and Pomerance have written a terrific book." - BULLETIN OF THE AMS
