Overview
Thisfourth edition substantially extends, updates and clarifies the previous editions of this celebrated book, and includes a new chapter on Hilbertian subfields of Galois extensions. Almost every chapter concludes with a set of exercises and bibliographical notes. An appendix presents a selection of open research problems.
Drawing from a wide literature at the interface of logic and arithmetic, this detailed and self-contained text can serve both as a textbook for graduate courses and as an invaluable reference for seasoned researchers.

About the Author
Moshe Jarden received his PhD in Mathematics from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 1970 under the supervision of Hillel Furstenberg. His post-doctoral research was completed during the years 1971–1973 at the Institute of Mathematics, Heidelberg University, where he habilitated in 1972. In 1974, he returned to Israel, and joined the School of Mathematics of Tel Aviv University. He became a full professor in 1982, and the incumbent of the Cissie and Aaron Beare Chair in Algebra and Number Theory in 1998. His research focuses on families of large algebraic extensions of Hilbertian fields. His book Field Arithmetic (1986) earned him the Landau Prize in 1987. For his pioneering work, and especially his long term cooperation with German mathematicians, he was awarded the L. Meithner-A.v.Humboldt Prize by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation in 2001. He is the author of “Algebraic Patching”, a Springer Monographs in Mathematics book and a joint author with Dan Haran of another book “The Absolute Galois group of a Semi-Local Fields” of the above-mentioned Springer Monographs in Mathematics.
