Description:

This is a text for a first course on modern algebra, usually taught in the second year of a degree course. It gives wider coverage than most other texts on the subject, and omits the less significant aspects to concentrate on the essentials. It features plenty of examples and exercises with solutions and so is ideally suited for self-study.

Synopsis:

This is a basic introduction to modern algebra, providing a solid understanding of the axiomatic treatment of groups and then rings, aiming to promote a feeling for the evolutionary and historical development of the subject. It includes problems and fully worked solutions, enabling readers to master the subject rather than simply observing it.
