This book is a concise and carefully written introduction to topics in commutative algebra, with an emphasis on worked examples and applications. The elegant algebraic theory is combined with applications to number theory, problems in classical Greek geometry, and the theory of finite fields, which has important uses in other branches of science. Topics covered include an introduction to rings and Euclidean rings, UFDs and PIDs, factorization of polynomials, fields and field extensions, and algebraic numbers.
This book could form a springboard to further study of abstract algebra, but is also eminently suitable as the course text for an entire undergraduate course.
Industry Reviews
Immaculately organised, the text glides seamlessly from the concrete to the abstrat; it is carefully written without being pedantic and all of the right motivational and cautinoary noises are made as intuition and feel for each new concept is developed.
