Math Its Spirit and Evolution

Pearson/Allyn & Bacon

The new sixth edition of Modern Algebra has two main goals: to introduce the most important kinds of algebraic structures, and to help students improve their ability to understand and work with abstract ideas. The first six chapters present the core of the subject; the remainder are designed to be as flexible as possible. The text covers groups before rings, which is a matter of personal preference for instructors. Modern Algebra, 6e is appropriate for any one-semester junior/senior level course in Modern Algebra, Abstract Algebra, Algebraic Structures, or Groups, Rings and Fields. The course is mostly comprised of mathematics majors, but engineering and computer science majors may also take it as well.

College Level Introduction to Modern Algebra

John Wiley&Sons

Presents a thorough, no-frills introduction to trigonometry in the general context of functions and their graphs. Emphasizes the functional aspect of trigonometry including an introductory chapter on general ideas of functions and graphs. Covers exponential and logarithmic functions and the most important ideas from analytic geometry. Provides a large selection of exercises, half of them answered, ranging in difficulty from simple, straightforward checks on basic concepts, to problems that integrate several ideas and may involve applications. Features cumulative review exercises that cover groups of chapters.

Trigonometry

A revised, easy-to-read text treating the standard topics of college algebra, complete with a large number of clear and complete examples and exercises. The main goal is to teach students how to handle the tools of algebra such as solving equations and manipulating symbols. With an emphasis on skills and applications, it is designed for students preparing for calculus, business mathematics, or statistics, or as a terminal course for students in liberal arts. Answers are given to most of the odd-numbered exercises from each section and to nearly all of the review exercises.

Modern Algebra an Introduction

Wiley, John Sons

This book presents an introduction to modern (abstract) algebra covering the basic ideas of groups, rings, and fields. The first part of the book treats ideas that are important but neither abstract nor complicated, and provides practice in handling mathematical statements - their meaning, quantification, negation, and proof. This edition features a new section to give more substance to the introduction to Galois theory, updated lists of references and discussions of topics such as Fermat's Last Theorem and the finite simple groups.

Modern Algebra: An Introduction, 4th Edition

This text is appropriate for any one-semester junior/senior level course in Modern Algebra, Abstract Algebra, Algebraic Structures, or Groups, Rings and Fields. Durbin has two main goals: to introduce the most important kinds of algebraic structures, and to help students improve their ability to understand and work with abstract ideas. The first six chapters present the core of the subject; the remainder are designed to be as flexible as possible. Durbin covers groups before rings, which is a matter of personal preference for instructors. The course is mostly comprised of mathematics majors, but you will find engineering and computer science majors as well.

Written to help students learn the basic concepts of modern algebra and how to handle abstract ideas and proofs. Begins by introducing readers to the mechanics of proofs such as implications, contrapositives, converses, quantifiers and more. The fundamental concepts of groups, rings and fields are presented, along with the use of these concepts through other math courses, by characterizing each of the basic number systems--integers, rational, real and complex numbers. Packed with examples and problems, it includes a variety of applications to both motivate and show the usefulness of modern algebra.
