I had ordered books from vrvbookshop site Ecom/BK/201101/250 and the books were delivered to me promptly at a speed I had not anticipated and the way you kept me posted throughout.
Thanks and keep up the good work

Considered a classic by many, A First Course in Abstract Algebra is an in-depth introduction to abstract algebra. Focused on groups, rings and fields, this text gives students a firm foundation for more specialized work by emphasizing an understanding of the nature of algebraic structures.
 
Features

  • This classical approach to abstract algebra focuses on applications.
  • The text is geared toward high-level courses at schools with strong mathematics programs.
  • Accessible pedagogy includes historical notes written by Victor Katz, an authority on the history of math.
  • By opening with a study of group theory, this text provides students with an easy transition to axiomatic mathematics.
