Find Book on Intro Abstract Algebra: Rings, Fields, Polynomials

[devious_]

I've been away for quite a while, and now I can't find the book forum.

Anyway, I'm looking for a book that covers introductory abstract algebra. The course outline is:
- (commutative) rings, fields, Z, Q, R, C, Z, polynomial rings, properties of Z.
- division algorithm, Euclidean algorithm, primes, congruences, Fermat & Euler theorems, unique factorization, linear and other congruence equations, Chinese Remainder Theorem
- sets, well-ordering, functions, equivalence relations, proof by induction, cardinality, existence of transcendentals
- finite fields, fundamental theorem of algebra, complex numbers
- polynomial rings, rational roots, irreducible polynomials, unique factorization

Thank you.

there's a big textbook thread in there also. i think i recommended herstein's abstract algebra as an intro for algebra

One book that covers all of these topics is "Abstract Algebra: An Introduction" by Thomas W. Hungerford. It covers all the topics mentioned in the course outline, including rings, fields, polynomials, congruences, and finite fields. It also includes a section on the fundamental theorem of algebra and complex numbers. This book is a great resource for anyone looking to learn about introductory abstract algebra. You can try searching for it online or checking your local library. Good luck!
