内容説明

This book offers the fundamentals of Galois Theory, including a set of copious, well-chosen exercises that form an important part of the presentation. The pace is gentle and incorporates interesting historical material, including aspects on the life of Galois. Computed examples, recent developments, and extensions of results into other related areas round out the presentation.
