1. Abstract Algebra
A thorough, widely used advanced undergraduate/graduate textbook that develops the core structures and techniques of modern algebra: group theory (including permutation groups, group actions, Sylow theorems, and simple/solvable groups), ring and ideal theory, modules and the structure theorem for finitely generated modules over a PID, field extensions and Galois theory, together with topics such as tensor products and basic representation theory. The exposition combines detailed proofs with an extensive collection of exercises of varying difficulty, making the work both a course text and a long-term reference for further study.
