Through this book, upper undergraduate mathematics majors will
master a challenging yet rewarding subject, and approach advanced
studies in algebra, number theory and geometry with confidence.
Groups, rings and fields are covered in depth with a strong
emphasis on irreducible polynomials, a fresh approach to modules
and linear algebra, a fresh take on Groebner theory, and a group
theoretic treatment of Rejewski's deciphering of the Enigma
machine. It includes a detailed treatment of the basics on finite
groups, including Sylow theory and the structure of finite abelian
groups. Galois theory and its applications to polynomial equations
and geometric constructions are treated in depth. Those interested
in computations will appreciate the novel treatment of division
algorithms. This rigorous text 'gets to the point', focusing on
concisely demonstrating the concept at hand, taking a 'definitions
first, examples next' approach. Exercises reinforce the main ideas
of the text and encourage students' creativity.
GOING PRO answers your questions and stimulates your thinking when
a top-rated high school baseball player is deciding whether to turn
professional after graduation instead of playing college ball
first. Here you will find dozens of pages that address this dilemma
along with a statistical analysis focused only on high school
baseball players turning professional. Details on signing bonuses
and salary along with other financial considerations including
MLB-paid college scholarships. Find out how many high school
players were drafted in 2012 and 2013, and more importantly who
signed and for how much. Information on minor leagues is provided,
including an entire appendix devoted to them, as well as the Indies
and the foreign baseball leagues. Finally, the rules on banned
substances and prohibited activities are provided.
College Baseball Recruiting provides the high school baseball
player and his parents with valuable information on college
recruiting, scholarships, letters of intent, eligibility (initial
and continuing), amateurism, transfers and much more. College
Baseball Recruiting explains clearly the rules that apply if you
play college baseball for a school that competes in the NCAA
(distinguishing D1, D2 and D3) or in the NAIA, or at a junior
college competing in the NJCAA. Also addressed are the unique rules
for junior colleges located in California and competing in the
CCCAA or located in Oregon and Washington and competing in the
NWCAA. No other single publication and no single website contain
all this information in an easy to read, understand and apply
format. Here you will find over three dozen tables and figures that
clearly summarize the complex rules of college baseball recruiting.
Flow charts walk players and parents through the arcane world of
transfers. Success plans are provided for each year in high school.
Issues involving letters of intent and limitations on scholarships
are simplified. Initial eligibility standards and continuing
eligibility requirements are tabulated to allow for comparisons
between the different conferences. Learn exactly what substances,
including dietary and nutritional supplements, have been banned and
where to find even more information. Over 60 specific questions are
posed, reflecting real-life concerns voiced by high school baseball
players, and answers are provided in easy to understand and apply
language. College Baseball Recruiting is the best single source of
information for high school baseball players (and their parents)
interested in playing baseball in college and provides what you
need to reach the next level.
