Since its publication, C F Gauss' "Disquisitiones Arithmeticae" (1801) has acquired an almost mythical reputation, standing as an ideal of exposition in notation, problems and methods; and as a source of mathematical inspiration. This title assesses the impact of the "Disquisitiones", in the two centuries since its publication.
