Algebra by Michael Artin

Algebra, Second Edition, by Michael Artin, provides comprehensive coverage at the level of an honors-undergraduate or introductory-graduate course. The second edition of this classic text incorporates twenty years of feedback plus the author’s own teaching experience. This book discusses concrete topics of algebra in greater detail than others, preparing readers for the more abstract concepts; linear algebra is tightly integrated throughout.
Michael Artin received his A.B. from Princeton University in 1955, and his M.A. and Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1956 and 1960, respectively. He continued at Harvard as Benjamin Peirce Lecturer, 1960—63. He joined the MIT mathematics faculty in 1963, and was appointed Norbert Wiener Professor from 1988—93. Outside MIT, Artin served as President of the American Mathematical Society from 1990-92. He has received honorary doctorate degrees from the University of Antwerp and University of Hamburg.
