Abstract Algebra, 3rd Edition

Rating:
Summary: A great book
Review: We are so lucky that Herstein, as a great write, wrote this text in the last two years of his life. I think I am careful enough to say this is the best text I ever seen for years. Certainly, "best text" to different people are different. For every student who wants to be a mathematician, I stronly recommend this as the first text on abstract algebra. If you have a month, reading and doing all the problems, you will love mathematics.

And I want to point out a mistake by another reviewer here. He said something about 30 years. However, this book is written 12 years ago.
