Note publique d'information : Résumé de l'éditeur : "This book is the English translation of Baumgart’s thesis on
the early proofs of the quadratic reciprocity law (“Über das quadratische Reciprocitätsgesetz.
Eine vergleichende Darstellung der Beweise”), first published in 1885. It is divided
into two parts. The first part presents a very brief history of the development of
number theory up to Legendre, as well as detailed descriptions of several early proofs
of the quadratic reciprocity law. The second part highlights Baumgart’s comparisons
of the principles behind these proofs. A current list of all known proofs of the quadratic
reciprocity law, with complete references, is provided in the appendix. This book
will appeal to all readers interested in elementary number theory and the history
of number theory"
