From the reviews of the second edition: "This well-written book covers the basic facts about the geometry and arithmetic of elliptic curves, and is sure to become the standard reference in the subject. It meets the needs of at least three groups of people: students interested in doing research in Diophantine geometry, mathematicians needing a reference for standard facts about elliptic curves, and computer scientists interested in algorithms and needing an introduction to elliptic curves..."-- MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS "The book under review is the second, revised, enlarged, and updated edition of J.

Synopsis
The theory of elliptic curves is distinguished by its long history and by the diversity of the methods that have been used in its study. This book treats the arithmetic approach in its modern formulation, through the use of basic algebraic number theory and algebraic geometry. Following a brief discussion of the necessary algebro-geometric results, the book proceeds with an exposition of the geometry and the formal group of elliptic curves, elliptic curves over finite fields, the complex numbers, local fields, and global fields. Final chapters deal with integral and rational points, including Siegels theorem and explicit computations for the curve Y = X + DX, while three appendices conclude the whole: Elliptic Curves in Characteristics 2 and 3, Group Cohomology, and an overview of more advanced topics., The theory of elliptic curves is distinguished by the diversity of the methods used in its study. This book treats the arithmetic theory of elliptic curves in its modern formulation, through the use of basic algebraic number theory and algebraic geometry., The theory of elliptic curves is distinguished by its long history and by the diversity of the methods that have been used in its study. This book treats the arithmetic theory of elliptic curves in its modern formulation, through the use of basic algebraic number theory and algebraic geometry. The book begins with a brief discussion of the necessary algebro-geometric results, and proceeds with an exposition of the geometry of elliptic curves, the formal group of an elliptic curve, elliptic curves over finite fields, the complex numbers, local fields, and global fields. The last two chapters deal with integral and rational points, including Siegel's theorem and explicit computations for the curve Y 2 = X 3 + DX., In the preface to the ?rst edition of this book I remarked on the paucity of int- ductory texts devoted to the arithmetic of elliptic curves. That unfortunate state of affairs has long since been remedied with the publication of many volumes, among which may be mentioned books by Cassels [43], Cremona [54], Husemol ¨ ler [118], Knapp [127], McKean et. al [167], Milne [178], and Schmitt et. al [222] that hi- light the arithmetic and modular theory, and books by Blake et. al [22], Cohen et. al [51], Hankerson et. al [107], and Washington [304] that concentrate on the use of elliptic curves in cryptography.However, even among this cornucopia of literature, I hope that this updated version of the original text will continue to be useful. The past two decadeshave witnessed tremendousprogressin the study of elliptic curves. Among the many highlights are the proof by Merel [170] of uniform bou- edness for torsion points on elliptic curves over number'elds, results of Rubin [215] and Kolyvagin [130] on the ?niteness of Shafarevich-Tate groups and on the c- jecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer,the work of Wiles [311] on the modularity of elliptic curves, and the proof by Elkies [77] that there exist in'nitely many supers- gular primes. Although this introductory volume is unable to include proofs of these deep results, it will guide the reader along the beginning of the trail that ultimately leads to these summits.
