as well as to any reader who wants to understand ― perhaps for the first time ― the true greatness of mathematical achievements

Introduction to the Theory of Abstract Algebras and of the simple-system modelIntended for beginning graduate level courses, this text introduces various aspects of the theory of abstract algebra. The book is also suitable as independent reading for interested students at that level as well as a primary source for a one semester course that an instructor may supplement to expand to a full year. Author Richard S. Pierce, a Professor of Mathematics at Seattle's University of Washington, places considerable emphasis on
