This text uses the concepts usually taught in the first semester of a modern abstract algebra course to illuminate classical number theory: theorems on primitive roots, quadratic Diophantine equations, and the Fermat conjecture for exponents three and four. The text contains abundant numerical examples and a particularly helpful collection of exercises.Bolker, Ethan D. is the author of 'Elementary Number Theory An Algebraic Approach', published 2007 under ISBN 9780486458076 and ISBN 0486458075.
