SC - 983 | Rings, Fields, and Vector Spaces

Rings, Fields, and Vector Spaces: An Introduction to Abstract Algebra via Geometric Constructibility (Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics) by B.A. Sethuraman (Author)

Using the proof of the non-trisectability of an arbitrary angle as a final goal, the author develops in an easy conversational style the basics of rings, fields, and vector spaces.

Originally developed as a text for an introduction to algebra course for future high-school teachers at California State University, Northridge, the focus of this book is on exposition. It would serve extremely well as a focused, one-semester introduction to abstract algebra.
