Description for Basic Notions of Algebra
Hardback. Offers an informative view on algebra and its place in modern mathematics and science. This book shows how the origins of each algebraic concept can be related to attempts to model phenomena in physics or in other branches of mathematics, from the fields, commutative rings, and groups studied in various university math course. Editor(s): Shafarevich, I. R.; Kostrikin, Aleksei I.; Reid, M. Series: Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Sciences. Num Pages: 260 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PB. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 241 x 163 x 21. Weight in Grams: 542.

Reviews for Basic Notions of Algebra
From the reviews: "This is one of the few mathematical books, the reviewer has read from cover to cover ... The main merit is that nearly on every page you will find some unexpected insights..." (Zentralblatt für Mathematik und Ihre Grenzgebiete, 1991) "...which I read like a novel and undoubtedly will become a classic. ... Read more
