text: 1974 [Academic Press], Harold M. Edwards, Riemann's Zeta Function, 2001, Dover, page 182,
The problem of locating the roots p of ζ, and consequently the problem of estimating the error in the prime number theorem, is closely related to the problem of estimating the growth of ζ in the critical strip 0<Res<1 as Ims→∞.
text: In 1859, Riemann attempted to give a complete proof of the prime number theorem using the zeta function for complex variables s. Although he was not successful in proving the prime number theorem he established many properties of the zeta function and showed that the prime number theorem depended on the zeros of the zeta function.
