ELEMENTS OF MODERN ALGEBRA is intended for an introductory course in abstract algebra taken by Math and Math for Secondary Education majors. Helping to make the study of abstract algebra more accessible, this text gradually introduces and develops concepts through helpful features that provide guidance on the techniques of proof construction and logic analysis. The text develops mathematical maturity for students by presenting the material in a theorem-proof format, with definitions and major results easily located through a user-friendly format. The treatment is rigorous and self-contained, in keeping with the objectives of training the student in the techniques of algebra and of providing a bridge to higher-level mathematical courses. The text has a flexible organization, with section dependencies clearly mapped out and optional topics that instructors can cover or skip based on their course needs. Additionally, problem sets are carefully arranged in order of difficulty to cater assignments to varying student ability levels.
