Local Class Field Theory (Oxford Mathematical Monographs)

By Iwasawa and Kenkichi Iwasawa

This book provides a readable introduction to local class field theory, a theory of algebraic extensions. It covers abelian extensions in particular of so-called local fields, typical examples of which are the p-adic number fields. The book is almost self-contained and is accessible to any reader with a basic background in algebra and topological groups.
