Book Synopsis

Brief, clear, and well written, this introductory treatment bridges the gap between traditional and modern algebra. A carefully devised progression from the concrete to the abstract demystifies the subject, offering worked examples and to-the-point explanations. The text is supplemented with exercises and complete solutions, and the only prerequisite is high school-level algebra.
