Acclaimed by American Mathematical Monthly as "an excellent introduction,"this treatment ranges from basic definitions to important results and applications, introducing both the spirit and techniques of abstract algebra. It develops the elementary properties of rings and fields, explores extension fields and Galois theory, and examines numerous applications. 1982 edition. Reprint of the revised Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, England, 1982 edition.
