“It is dense with mathematics, but there is also motivation and discussion. The overall feeling is that of a very helpful survey of a very interesting field.”
“Thakur's book is a welcome addition to the collection of books on the arithmetic of Drinfel'd modules and objects related to them. Written by an expert in the field, the book's style is generally informal, without compromising rigor. It certainly will be useful to graduate students wishing to pursue research in the area of function fields, and at the same time it can be used as a reference book. Many of the important results on special values and transcendence are due to Thakur himself, so in many places the reader gets the 'insider's look' on the subject, and sees how the ideas which go into the proofs were gradually developed.”
“Thakur's book is a valuable contribution to the theory of arithmetic function fields … The author has included several interesting examples and discusses many open problems.”
