This is a systematic account of the multiplicative structure of integers, from the probabilistic point of view. The authors are especially concerned with the distribution of the divisors, which is as fundamental and important as the additive structure of the integers, and yet until now has hardly been discussed outside of the research literature.

We have been curious about numbers - and prime numbers - since antiquity. One notable direction this century in the study of primes has been the influx of ideas from probability. This book intends to provide insights into the prime numbers and to describe how a sequence so tautly determined can incorporate such a striking amount of randomness.
