Algebra: Volume II (1991. 1st Softcover Printing 2003)Paperback - 1991. 1st Softcover Printing 2003, 17 October 2003

This beautiful text transformed the graduate teaching of algebra in Europe and the United States. It clearly and succinctly formulated the conceptual and structural insights which Noether had expressed so forcefully and combined it with the elegance and understanding with which Artin had lectured. This second volume of the English translation of B.L. van der Waerden's text Algebra is the first softcover printing of the original translation.
