Numbers and Symmetry Framework order to explore the historicalThis textbook presents modern algebra from the ground up using numbers and symmetry. The idea of a ring and of a field are introduced in the context of concrete number systems. Groups arise from considering transformations of simple geometric objects. The analysis of symmetry provides the student with a visual introduction to the central algebraic notion of isomorphismDesigned for a typical one semester undergraduate course in modern algebra, it
