Description

"These two volumes must be regarded as a landmark in algebraical literature. The enormous wealth of material, the depth of treatment, and the masterly exposition render these volumes exceptionally valuable. All courses on algebra, from the second undergraduate year to the specialist studies for doctoral students, can benefit from this authoritative treatise by Professor Jacobson." Walter Ledermann, University of Sussex Volume1
Volume

v. 2 ISBN 9780716719335

Description

A revision of the text for graduate students who have already taken a strong first course. As in "Basic Algebra I", this text is for students of mathematics in the broad sense, not just for specialists in algebra. It stresses important applications and concrete instances of theory. Historical notes show the student the continuity of algebra with its modern developments and the relation of the subject to other areas of mathematics.
