Re:"A Course of Pure Mathematics" – G. H. Hardy (1921) [pdf] by tomatocracy on Tuesday December 31, 2024 @06:58PM (#42562795)
Absolutely - Hardy and Wright's An introduction to the theory of numbers is excellent but definitely doesn't need to be restricted to postgrads - its also fine for undergraduate level number theory (indeed it was a recommended textbook when I was an undergrad).

It is quite dense but at least personally I find that style of textbook much more useful than the American style enormous textbooks which takes a chapter to explain what could be said in a paragraph. You just need to know to expect it will take you quite a while to read each page.
