From the publisher

Since 1973, Galois theory has been educating undergraduate students on Galois groups and classical Galois theory. In Galois Theory, Fifth Edition, mathematician and popular science author Ian Stewart updates this well-established textbook for today's algebra students.

New to the Fifth Edition

  • Reorganised and revised Chapters 7 and 13
  • New exercises and examples

  • Further historical material on figures besides Galois: Omar Khayyam, Vandermonde, Ruffini, and Abel
