Notes on Fermat's Last Theorem

This is one of the first books to deal with Fermat's theorem and its proof discovered by Andrew Wiles, including a succinct discussion of Wiles' proof and its implications. Each chapter explains a separate area of number theory as it pertains to Fermat's last theorem and combined, presents a concise history of the theorem. The engaging writing style makes the text accessible for non-math students.
