Volume II of a pair of classic texts — and standard references for a generation — this book comprises all of the subjects of first-year graduate algebra. In addition to the immediate introduction and constant use of categories and functors, it revisits many topics from Volume I with greater depth. 1989 edition. Reprint of the W. H. Freeman and Company, San Francisco, 1989 edition.
