Elements of Algebra (AMS Chelsea Publishing) - Hardcover

"This book is addressed to beginning students of mathematics ... the level of the book, however, is so unusually high, mathematically as well as pedagogically, that it merits the attention of professional mathematicians (as well as of professional pedagogues) interested in the wider dissemination of their subject ... a closer approximation to the right way to teach mathematics to beginners than anything else now in existence." Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society
