The concept of factorization, familiar in the ordinary system of whole numbers that can be written as a unique product of prime numbers, plays a central role in modern mathematics and its applications. This exposition of the classic theory leads the reader to an understanding of the current knowledge of the subject and its connections to other mathematical concepts, for example in algebraic number theory. The book can be used as a text for a first course in number theory or for self-study by motivated high school students or readers interested in modern mathematics.

Steven H. Weintraub was born in 1951, received his PhD in mathematics from Princeton University in 1974, and is currently Professor of Mathematics at Lehigh University. A specialist in areas of geometry, topology, and algebra, he is the author of approximately 50 research papers, and has visited and lectured at numerous universities around the world. This is his sixth book.
