This book is designed to make "Abstract Algebra" as down-to-earth as possible. Using concrete examples such as the complex numbers, integers mod n, polynomials, symmetries, and permutations. We also introduce some of the beautifully general ideas of the theory of groups, rings, and fields. Along the way, we give applications to signal processing, cryptography and coding theory, as well as making connections with other branches of mathematics such as geometry and number theory.

The textbook is provided in three different formats: hyperlinked online version, pdf, and spiral bound copy (printme1.com is recommended for on-demand printing).

This book is not intended for budding mathematicians. It was created for a math program in which most of the students in upper-level math classes are planning to become secondary school teachers. For such students, conventional abstract algebra texts are practically incomprehensible, both in style and in content. Faced with this situation, we decided to create a book that our students could actually read for themselves. In this way we have been able to dedicate class time to problem-solving and personal interaction rather than rehashing the same material in lecture format.
