"The book is written in a clear and enlightening style. The author provides the reader with many examples that are developed throughout a dozen chapters. These examples help understand and clarify the depth and the variety of applications of the beautiful main equidistribution statement that relies on rather complicated and subtle algebrageometric arguments."
Florent Jouve, Mathematical Reviews Clippings "The book provides ... Read morethe reader with much material around the question of the equidistribution of the angles if one fixes f and varies over the multiplicative character x. More than one hundred pages of examples provide the reader with great insight in the different applications of the main theorem. This turns the book into a very good basis for research in this area."
Manfred G. Madritsch, Zentralblatt MATH "Once a certain basic understanding is reached, this book, like the others written by N. Katz, reveals itself to be very precisely and sharply written, and to be full of riches. And finally, this theory shows spectacularly how some of the most abstract ideas of algebra and algebraic geometry may be essential to solving extremely concrete problems."
