I'm posting this question here because I recall a certain book as being an outstanding introducton to algebraic structures and therefore worth knowing about in 2012. The problem is that I borrowed it from a library in the early 1990s and I can't remember it's name!
Here's what I remember:
- It was a plain brown hard-back, over 500 pages, measuring around 16cm x 24cm
- Had a title with the words groups, rings and maybe monoids or modules; I'm not too sure.
- Published before 1990, probably in the 1980s
- At the end of each chapter it devoted a few pages on the history of the development of the subject matter contained in that chapter which I've never seen in any other book before or since on algebraic structures.
Thanks in advance,
Jason
