This book deals with several aspects of what is now called
"explicit number theory." The central theme is the solution of
Diophantine equations, i.e., equations or systems of polynomial
equations which must be solved in integers, rational numbers or
more generally in algebraic numbers. This theme, in particular, is
the central motivation for the modern theory of arithmetic
algebraic geometry. In this text, this is considered through three
of its most basic aspects. The local aspect, global aspect, and the
third aspect is the theory of zeta and L-functions. This last
aspect can be considered as a unifying theme for the whole
subject.
