This book blends the theoretical with the practical in the instruction of modern algebra. Modern algebra is usually taught from the point of view of its intrinsic interest, without using applications. Many readers lose interest when they do not see the relevance of the subject and often become skeptical of the explanation that the material will be used later. The author believes by providing interesting and nontrivial applications, the student will better appreciate and understand the subject.

I'm a person of varied interests, and one of them is math.
I occasionally surf the net, looking to see which texts colleges and universities use in their undergraduate math classes, and if the text looks interesting, I'll order a copy to read, study and peruse at my leisure.
Maybe I'll go back to school and get another degree -- in math this time -- maybe not. Regardless, this is one book I'm glad to have in my personal library.
