Description for Abelian Groups
Hardback. Series: Springer Monographs in Mathematics. Num Pages: 760 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBC; PBF; PBG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155. .
Written by one of the subject's foremost experts, this book focuses on the central developments and modern methods of the advanced theory of abelian groups, while remaining accessible, as an introduction and reference, to the non-specialist. It provides a coherent source for results scattered throughout the research literature with lots of new proofs. The presentation highlights major trends that have radically changed the modern character of the subject, in particular, the use of homological methods in the structure theory of various classes of abelian groups, and the use of advanced set-theoretical methods in the study of un ...

Reviews for Abelian Groups
This is an amazing, fairly comprehensive account of the present state of the theory of abelian groups. ... I deem Abelian groups a `must have' for any algebraist, especially those working with rings and modules. (Manfred Dugas, Mathematical Reviews, December, 2016)
