Algebra: Concepts and Applied Principles - by Derek Portman (Hardcover)

About the Book

Algebra is a fundamental part of mathematics. It deals with the manipulation of mathematical symbols using specific rules. It is divided into the two branches of elementary algebra and abstract algebra. Elementary algebra is the basic form of algebra that deals with the arithmetic operations involving variables. Abstract algebra uses algebraic structures such as groups, rings and fields. Algebra is widely applied in the fields of science, engineering, medicine and economics. This book contains some path-breaking studies in the field of algebra. Some of the diverse topics covered in this book address the varied branches that fall under this category. As this field is emerging at a rapid pace, this book will help the readers to better understand the concepts of algebra.
