A comprehensive approach to abstract algebra

A First Course in Abstract Algebra, 8th Edition covers all the essentials for an in-depth introduction to abstract algebra, and is designed for maximum relevance to future graduate students, future high school teachers and students who intend to work in industry. New co-author Neal Brand has revised this classic text carefully and thoughtfully, drawing on years of experience teaching the course with this text to produce a meaningful and worthwhile update. Students build a firm foundation for more specialized work in algebra through its extensive explanations of the what, how and why behind each method. This revision also includes applied topics such as RSA encryption and coding theory, as well as examples of applying Gröbner bases.
