Easy to follow. Interesting subject. Review: Classical Work on Number Theory of Continued Fractions - This material in this classic work is mostly accessible to the undergraduate level engineer, mathematics, or other reader with similar background, but a good portion of this book is about measure theory of continued fractions, which is more easily accessed by those who have some mathematics background at the graduate level. Measure theory is the theory of the fraction of the extent of a domain that is mapped from the range of inputs to a function. Measure theory is used primarily by Khinchin and his students, but similar work is posed in terms of probability theory and other contexts by other mathematicians. Once this is understood (and it is hinted at by a footnote or two from the translator), this material becomes as accessible as the rest of the material. The book begins with a minor aside in a proof of convergence of continued fractions that have real partial numerators and denominators, whose partial numerators are all unity, and the sum of whose partial denominators diverges. Since the simple classical number-theoretic continued fractions are the subject of the book, this proof clearly includes all such continued fractions. This minor excursion from number theory and algebra is a significant advantage to this particular book as it provides a bedrock for later rate-of-convergence discussions. The related field of analytic theory of continued fractions that was explored by Riemann, Stieltjes, Tchebychev, Padé, Hamburger, Cesàro, and others that are contemporary to Khinchin (memorable classic by H.S. Wall was published in 1948, long after this book was written), is not ignored entirely. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,014,215 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #41 in Mathematical Infinity #183 in Number Theory (Books) #483 in Mathematical Analysis (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (72) | | Dimensions | 5.38 x 0.24 x 8.46 inches | | ISBN-10 | 0486696308 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0486696300 | | Item Weight | 10.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 112 pages | | Publication date | May 14, 1997 | | Publisher | Dover Publications | ## Images ![Continued Fractions (Dover Books on Mathematics) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61GwxB3VCIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book *by M***N on May 29, 2025* Nice book. Easy to follow. Interesting subject. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Classical Work on Number Theory of Continued Fractions *by T***R on March 4, 2016* This material in this classic work is mostly accessible to the undergraduate level engineer, mathematics, or other reader with similar background, but a good portion of this book is about measure theory of continued fractions, which is more easily accessed by those who have some mathematics background at the graduate level. Measure theory is the theory of the fraction of the extent of a domain that is mapped from the range of inputs to a function.

Though the book lacks examples and exercises, the first chapter is very well explained and organised letting us (the begginers) to grasp the main concepts of what continued fractions are.From the middle of chapter two onwards, it gets way more convoluted and the proofs much harder to understand. For the book price it is a very recommendable purchase. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.id/products/8251253-continued-fractions-dover-books-on-mathematics](https://www.desertcart.id/products/8251253-continued-fractions-dover-books-on-mathematics) --- *Product available on Desertcart Indonesia* *Store origin: ID* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
