DESCRIPTION:
This is Volume II of a two-volume introductory text in classical algebra. The text moves methodically with numerous examples and details so that readers with some basic knowledge of algebra can read it without difficulty.
… No doubt, this is an outstanding textbook on advanced topics in abstract algebra, mainly in its field-theoretic and number-theoretic aspects, and its availability in English makes it a unique and utmost valuable enrichment of the international textbook literature on the subject." (Werner Kleinert, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. Unlike some books, it is very possible to teach yourself the subject using this book. In all, Lorenz’s book is a wonderful reference for both teachers and researches, and can be used with much profit for independent study by hard-working students." (Luiz Hendrique de Figueiredo, MathDL, July, 2008)"The author has managed to cover such an amazing wealth of advanced material in a very adroit manner, thereby keeping the representation utmost lively, comprehensible, thorough, always straight to the point, essentially self-contained, methodologically elegant and – all in all – admirably reader-friendly. 1130 (8)
A fresh approach to advanced field theory, algebras, and other topics This is the second of two volumes in algebra by Falko Lorenz. It covers material that goes beyond a standard course in field theory and its classical problems, including Galois theory. It is as easy to follow as Volume 1, despite the fact that the topics are advanced.. very gracious book and generous seller! Very cheap for an academic book. Love it. Hope to buy more in this bookstore. A friend recommend it to me, and I will recommend it to another friend.
