The present volume is the first of three that will be published
under the general title Lectures in Abstract Algebra. These vol
umes are based on lectures which the author has given during the
past ten years at the University of North Carolina, at The Johns
Hopkins University, and at Yale "University. The general plan of
the work IS as follows: The present first volume gives an
introduction to abstract algebra and gives an account of most of
the important algebraIc concepts. In a treatment of this type it is
impossible to give a comprehensive account of the topics which are
introduced. Nevertheless we have tried to go beyond the foundations
and elementary properties of the algebraic sys tems. This has
necessitated a certain amount of selection and omission. We feel
that even at the present stage a deeper under standing of a few
topics is to be preferred to a superficial under standing of many.
The second and third volumes of this work will be more special ized
in nature and will attempt to give comprehensive accounts of the
topics which they treat. Volume II will bear the title Linear
Algebra and will deal with the theorv of vectQ _JlP. -a. ces. . . .
. Volume III, The Theory of Fields and Galois Theory, will be con
cerned with the algebraic structure offieras and with valuations of
fields. All three volumes have been planned as texts for courses."
