About this title

Synopsis

This book presents interesting applications of abstract algebra to practical real-world problems. Especially for those whose interest in algebra is not confined to abstract theory, the text makes the study of abstract algebra more exciting and meaningful. The book is appropriate as either a text for an applied abstract algebra course or as a supplemental text for a standard course in abstract algebra. While fully developed, the algebraic theory presented is just what is required for the applications discussed in the book.

Review

"This is an amazing book, which contains a wealth of interesting material...Anyone reading the text will be astounded by the variety of algebraic tools and concepts which can be used to solve some of the problems treated in the text."
