However, also mathematicians who do not have number theory as their main focus will enjoy this book.\"--Adhemar Bultheel, European Mathematical Society \"Ash and Gross do a masterful job of leading students from finite sums to modular forms and to the forefront of modern number theory... This is an excellent piece of mathematical writing.\"--Choice \"[A]n accessible and fun introduction to modular forms... [Summing It Up] is engaging and conversational, without losing accuracy or essential rigor.\"--Dominic Lanphier, American Mathematical Monthly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*Frontmatter, pg. i*CONTENTS, pg. vii*PREFACE, pg. xi*ACKNOWLEDGMENTS, pg. xv*INTRODUCTION: WHAT THIS BOOK IS ABOUT, pg. 1*CHAPTER 1.
