Abel Heeke was certainly one of the masters, and in fact, the study of Heeke L­ series and Heeke operators has permanently embedded his name in the fabric of number theory. It is a rare occurrence when a master writes a basic book, and Heeke''s Lectures on the Theory of Algebraic Numbers has becom...
