description: ( ? )
This book is a self-contained elementary introduction to rings and modules, and should be useful for courses on Algebra. The emphasis is on concept development with adequate examples and counter-examples drawn from topics such as analysis, topology, etc. The entire material, including exercises, is fully class tested.
