Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for the First Edition "Stahl offers the solvability of equations from the historicalpoint of view...one of the best books available to support aone-semester introduction to abstract algebra." —CHOICE Introductory Modern Algebra: A Historical Approach, SecondEdition presents the evolution of algebra and provides readerswith the opportunity to view modern algebra as a consistentmovement from concrete problems to abstract principles. With a fewpertinent excerpts from the writings of some of the greatestmathematicians, the Second Edition uniquely facilitates theunderstanding of pivotal algebraic ideas. The author provides a clear, precise, and accessibleintroduction to modern algebra and also helps to develop a moreimmediate and well-grounded understanding of how equations lead topermutation groups and what those groups can inform us about suchdiverse items as multivariate functions and the 15-puzzle.Featuring new sections on topics such as group homomorphisms, theRSA algorithm, complex conjugation, the factorization of realpolynomials, and the fundamental theorem of algebra, the SecondEdition also includes: An in-depth explanation of the principles and practices ofmodern algebra in terms of the historical development from theRenaissance solution of the cubic equation to Dedekind'sideals Historical discussions integrated with the development ofmodern and abstract algebra in addition to many new explicitstatements of theorems, definitions, and terminology A new appendix on logic and proofs, sets, functions, andequivalence relations Over 1,000 new examples and multi-level exercises at the end ofeach section and chapter as well as updated chapter summaries Introductory Modern Algebra: A Historical Approach, SecondEdition is an excellent textbook for upper-undergraduatecourses in modern and abstract algebra.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presenting a dynamic new historical approach to the study of abstract algebra Much of modern algebra has its roots in the solvability of equations by radicals. Most introductory modern algebra texts, however, tend to employ an axiomatic strategy, beginning with abstract groups and ending with fields, while ignoring the issue of solvability. This book, by contrast, traces the historical development of modern algebra from the Renaissance solution of the cubic equation to Galois's expositions of his major ideas. Professor Saul Stahl gives readers a unique opportunity to view the evolution of modern algebra as a consistent movement from concrete problems to abstract principles. By including several pertinent excerpts from the writings of mathematicians whose works kept the movement going, he helps students experience the drama of discovery behind the formulation of pivotal ideas. Students also develop a more immediate and well-grounded understanding of how equations lead to permutation groups and what those groups can tell us about multivariate functions and the 15-puzzle. To further this understanding, Dr. Stahl presents abstract groups as unifying principles rather than collections of "interesting" axioms. This fascinating, highly effective alternative to traditional survey-style expositions sets a new standard for undergraduate mathematics texts and supplies a firm foundation that will continue to support students' understanding of the subject long after the course work is completed. An Instructor's Manual presenting detailed solutions to all the problems in the book is available upon request from the Wiley editorial department.

Book excerpt: The Second Edition of this classic text maintains the clear exposition, logical organization, and accessible breadth of coverage that have been its hallmarks. It plunges directly into algebraic structures and incorporates an unusually large number of examples to clarify abstract concepts as they arise. Proofs of theorems do more than just prove the stated results; Saracino examines them so readers gain a better impression of where the proofs come from and why they proceed as they do. Most of the exercises range from easy to moderately difficult and ask for understanding of ideas rather than flashes of insight. The new edition introduces five new sections on field extensions and Galois theory, increasing its versatility by making it appropriate for a two-semester as well as a one-semester course.
