A propos de cet article

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Galois theory is a mature mathematical subject of particular beauty. Any Galois theory book written nowadays bears a great debt to Emil Artin's classic text 'Galois Theory,' and this book is no exception. While Artin's book pioneered an approach to Galois theory that relies heavily on linear algebra, this book's author takes the linear algebra emphasis even further. This special approach to the subject together with the clarity of its presentation, as well as the choice of topics covered, has made the first edition ofthis book a more than worthwhile addition to theliterature on Galois Theory. The second edition, with a new chapter on transcendental extensions, will only further serve to make the bookappreciated by and approachable toundergraduate and beginning graduate math majors. 228 pp. Englisch.

Synopsis

The new edition of this text on classical Galois Theory approaches the theory from the linear algebra point of view, following Artin. It also presents a number of applications of the theory and an expanded chapter on transcendental extensions.
