Accessible but rigorous, this outstanding text encompasses all of the topics covered by a typical course in elementary abstract algebra. Its easy-to-read treatment offers an intuitive approach, featuring informal discussions followed by thematically arranged exercises. Intended for undergraduate courses in abstract algebra, it is suitable for junior- and senior-level math major...(展开全部)

Widely acclaimed algebra text. This book is designed to give the reader insight into the power and beauty that accrues from a rich interplay between different areas of mathematics. The book carefully develops the theory of different algebraic structures, beginning from basic definitions to some in--depth results, using numerous examples and exercises to aid the reader's underst...(展开全部)

David S. Dummit and Richard M. Foote are the authors of Abstract Algebra, 3rd Edition, published by Wiley.

This text is designed to give students insight into the main themes in abstract algebra. Early introduction to recurring notions such as homomorphisms, isomorphisms, actions, and classifications provides a natural flow for the development of basic abstract algebra. Students are immediately exposed to concepts the way an algebraist (or mathematician) envisions and works with the...(展开全部)

Accessible to undergraduates yet its scope and depth also make it ideal for courses at the graduate level. Over 1500 exercises, many with multiple parts, ranging in scope from routine to fairly sophisticated, and ranging in purpose from basic application of text material to exploration of important theoretical or computational techniques. The structure of the book permits ins...(展开全部)

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.

Volume I of a pair of classic texts -- and standard references for a generation -- this book is the work of an expert algebraist who taught at Yale for two decades. Volume I covers all undergraduate topics, including groups, rings, modules, Galois theory, polynomials, linear algebra, and associative algebra. 1985 edition.

Stressing major themes in the history of medicine, this Second Edition stimulates further exploration of the events, methodologies, and theories that shaped medical practices in decades past and in modern clinical practice-highlighting the practices of civilizations around the world, as well as the research of pioneering scientists and physicians who contributed to our current ...(展开全部)

This thoroughly revised and updated edition of ‘A History of Cambodia’ provides a timely look at this increasingly visible Southeast Asian nation. Hailed by the ‘Journal of Asian Studies’ as an “original contribution, superior to any other existing work,” the first edition ended in 1953 with Cambodia’s independence from France; the second carries the narrative forward to the p...(展开全部)
