On the 26th of November 1992 the organizing committee gathered
together, at Luigi Salce's invitation, for the first time. The
tradition of abelian groups and modules Italian conferences (Rome
77, Udine 85, Bressanone 90) needed to be kept up by one more
meeting. Since that first time it was clear to us that our goal was
not so easy. In fact the main intended topics of abelian groups,
modules over commutative rings and non commutative rings have
become so specialized in the last years that it looked really
ambitious to fit them into only one meeting. Anyway, since everyone
of us shared the same mathematical roots, we did want to emphasize
a common link. So we elaborated the long symposium schedule: three
days of abelian groups and three days of modules over non
commutative rings with a two days' bridge of commutative algebra in
between. Many of the most famous names in these fields took part to
the meeting. Over 140 participants, both attending and contributing
the 18 Main Lectures and 64 Communications (see list on page xv)
provided a really wide audience for an Algebra meeting. Now that
the meeting is over, we can say that our initial feeling was right.

In one exceptional volume, Abstract Algebra covers subject matter
typically taught over the course of two or three years and offers a
self-contained presentation, detailed definitions, and excellent
chapter-matched exercises to smooth the trajectory of learning
algebra from zero to one. Field-tested through advance use in the
ERASMUS educational project in Europe, this ambitious,
comprehensive book includes an original treatment of representation
of finite groups that avoids the use of semisimple ring theory and
explains sets, maps, posets, lattices, and other essentials of the
algebraic language; Peano's axioms and cardinality; groupoids,
semigroups, monoids, groups; and normal subgroups.
