The Little Book of Bigger Primes

The immensely popular Guiness Book of World Records lacked a chapter on prime numbers. The also popular Book of Prime Number Records, however, fills this need. This abridged version, written by the same author, is devoted to presenting records concerning prime numbers, but it also explores the interface between computations and the theory of prime numbers. The book contains up-to-date historical presentation of the main problems pertaining to prime numbers, as well as many fascinating topics, including primality testing. It is written in a light and humorous language without secrets and is thoroughly accessible to everyone.
