• Sommario/riassunto: Praise for the Third Edition "". . . an expository masterpiece of the highest didactic value that has gained additional attractivity through the various improvements . . .""-Zentralblatt MATH The Fourth Edition of Introduction to Abstract Algebra continues to provide an accessible approach to the basic structures of abstract algebra: groups, rings, and fields. The book's unique presentation helps readers advance to abstract theory by presenting concrete examples of induction, number theory, integers modulo n, and permutations before the abstract structures a
