a great book for non-math majors This wonderful book struggles with amajor problem in math education: How do you get a class of 40 students tovisualise abstract algebra? Ideally, you'd want to give many examples andproblems for them to work out. Soviet books have traditionally taken thisapproach, so with many Soviet math books there was a compendium of"1000 solved problems in... ". There are similar books inEnglish, but only for the most elementary courses. Having a few dosen bookswith solved problems in Topology, for example, would have been a greatthing, but there isn't any economic motivation for such books. Alternately,if it were possible to calculate and compute things, then students couldexperiment with and explore the subject matter on their own. This is whatgraphing calculators, for example, did to intro calculus classes -- it madeit possible for students to experiment and visualise the subject matterlike nothing else. But how do you visualise abstract algebra? You couldwrite computer programs to do such things as compute permutations,intersect sets, solve matrices, etc, but in "mainstream"programming languages this would take a while, be error prone and slow downthe class. It wouldn't be practical. The author's solution: Use APL! APL isa programming language designed specifically for concisely manipulatingvectors and matrices. APL programs are so concise that in one or two linesof APL code students can accomplish what would otherwise take hundreds oflines of C code. With a few keystrokes, students could be performingcomplex operations on groups and fields and sets. APL is fun, quick andconcise, and students will be focused on what really matters -- abstractalgebra, rather than delving into the nuts and bolts o yet-anotherprogramming language. APL to abstract algebra is like a graphing calculatorto studying functions -- it helps, it's fun, it gives intuition andinsight. The book doesn't cover as much material as, say, Herstein'sbook. On the other hand, it will give the students a quick feel for thesubject matter. Perhaps the book would be ideal for computer science majorsand other non-math majors that are expected to take two semesters ofabstract algebra. Another minor issue is that the dialect of APL used inthe book is a bit old -- the code's great, but I think the students wouldhave a better experience with APL2 or J. J has a richer numeric tower andmuch of the supporting software is made redundant by it. ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description "This book is clearly written and presents a large number of examples illustrating the theory . . . there is no other book of comparable content available. Because of its detailed coverage of applications generallyneglected in the literature, it is a desirable if not essential addition to undergraduate mathematics and computer science libraries." As a cornerstone of mathematical science, the importance of modern algebra and discrete structures to many areas of science and technology is apparent and growing–with extensive use in computing science, physics, chemistry, and data communications as well as in areas of mathematics such as combinatorics. Blending the theoretical with the practical in the instruction of modern algebra, Modern Algebra with Applications, Second Edition provides interesting and important applications of this subject–effectively holding your interest and creating a more seamless method of instruction. Incorporating the applications of modern algebra throughout its authoritative treatment of the subject, this book covers the full complement of group, ring, and field theory typically contained in a standard modern algebra course. Numerous examples are included in each chapter, and answers to odd-numbered exercises are appended in the back of the text. Chapter topics include: In addition to improvements in exposition, this fully updated Second Edition also contains new material on order of an element and cyclic groups, more details about the lattice of divisors of an integer, and new historical notes. Filled with in-depth insights and over 600 exercises of varying difficulty, Modern Algebra with Applications, Second Edition can help anyone appreciate and understand this subject.

Exact unified language for physics and mathematics
a marriage of geometry and algebra made in heaven Science proceeds both by discovery and by a process of recasting what has been learned in simpler and clearer form.It is the fruits of this latter process that are presented in CA to GC, though some new mathematical results are also introduced.The authors have succeeded admirably in recasting large areas of intermediate to advanced mathematics in a powerful unified algebraic language of exceptional clarity.The authors show how the traditional languages of complex numbers, quaternions, matrices, vectors, tensors, spinors and differential forms are all subsumed by the elegant language of Clifford algebra, and their calculi by Clifford analysis.Quite apart from the pleasure that the clarity of Clifford algebra/analysis affords, its value also lies in making it easier to understand what has already been discovered, and thus extending the mathematical grasp of the human mind.I have often seen the terms "breakthrough" and "groundbreaking" applied to paltry advances in science, mostly by the innovators themselves, but surely Clifford algebra/analysis is deserving of such an appellation.It has been long in gestation, but its time has come. In CA to GC, the authors present a tour-de-force of mathematical exposition, the writing displaying the same perspicuity and precision that marks all of Hestenes' writing.While further-refined versions of much of the material of the book can now be downloaded in the form of pdf files from Hestenes' website, this book will go down in history as a classic of unifying mathematical exposition.The university student should begin with the New Foundations for Classical Mechanics book, but CA to GC should be read by every mathematician, physicist and engineering scientist.The reader contemplating learning Clifford algebra/analysis should also take a look at the rapidly growing amount of information online, and at other books on the subject.It is an honor for me to be the first reviewer of this book on Amazon.com. ...
