Carl Friedrich Gauss’s textbook, Disquisitiones arithmeticae, published in 1801 (Latin), remains to this day a true masterpiece of mathematical examination.                                                                                                                                 .

The first translation into English of the standard work on the theory of numbers by one of the greatest masters of modern mathematical analysis, this classic was first published in 1801 in Latin.  It has continued to be important to mathematicians as the source of the ideas from which number theory was developed and to students of the history of the electrical, astronomical, and engineering sciences, which were furthered by Gauss’ application of his mathematical principles to these fields.  Father Clarke has achieved a sympathetic and faithful translation of this monumental work.  The book is complete and unabridged, and a bibliography of the references cited by Gauss has been added by the translator. "Whatever set of values is adopted, Gauss's Disquistiones Arithmeticae surely belongs among the greatest mathematical treatises of all fields and periods. . . . The appearance of an English version of this classic is most welcome."—Asger Aaboe. 

Gauss published Disquisitiones Arithmeticae in 1801, at the age of 24. Today it is regarded as one of the most influential mathematical works ever written, and one which laid the foundations for modern number theory. Among many other things, the book contains a clear presentation of Gauss’ method of modular arithmetic, and the first proof of the law of quadratic reciprocity (first conjectured by Euler and Legendre). This is the original Latin edition
