Algebra
, the text also includes topics\nlike symmetry, linear groups, group representations\nand quadratic number fields. The author presents\nnumerous examples before giving abstract definitions\nand illustrates their applications.
Chapter-end\nexercises are designed to reinforce the under-\nstanding of the concepts developed. Much of the\nbook is devoted to working out interesting special\ncases or applications of theory.
