It focuses on the main ideas and how they hang together. It will be useful to both students and professionals. In addition to the standard material on groups, rings, modules, fields, and Galois theory, the book includes discussions of other important topics that are often omitted in the standard graduate course, including linear groups, group representations, the structure of Artinian rings, projective, injective and flat modules, Dedekind domains, and central simple algebras. All of the important theorems are discussed, without proofs but often with a discussion of the intuitive ideas behind those proofs. Those looking for a way to review and refresh their basic algebra will benefit from reading this Guide, and it will also serve as a ready reference for mathematicians who make use of algebra in their work. 410 0$aDolciani Mathematical Expositions 517 3 $aA Guide to Groups, Rings, & Fields 606 $aAlgebra 606 $aRings (Algebra) 606 $aAlgebraic fields 615 0$aAlgebra. 615 0$aRings (Algebra) 615 0$aAlgebraic fields. 676 $a512 700 $aGouve?a$b Fernando Q$g(Fernando Quadros),$0382239 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786153303321 996 $aA guide to groups, rings, and fields$93847494 997 $aUNINA
