Providing the first comprehensive account of the widely unknown
cooperation and friendship between Emmy Noether and Helmut Hasse,
this book contains English translations of all available letters
which were exchanged between them in the years 1925-1935. It
features a special chapter on class field theory, a subject which
was completely renewed in those years, Noether and Hasse being
among its main proponents. These historical items give evidence
that Emmy Noether's impact on the development of mathematics is not
confined to abstract algebra but also extends to important ideas in
modern class field theory as part of algebraic number theory. In
her letters, details of proofs appear alongside conjectures and
speculations, offering a rich source for those who are interested
in the rise and development of mathematical notions and ideas. The
letters are supplemented by extensive comments, helping the reader
to understand their content within the mathematical environment of
the 1920s and 1930s.
