An Academic Algebra

This textbook offers a rigorous introduction to algebra for college and university students. With a focus on abstract algebraic structures such as groups and rings, as well as linear algebra, the book provides a solid foundation for further study of higher mathematics. Clear explanations and detailed examples make this a valuable resource for students of mathematics at all levels.

Excerpt from The Academic Algebra The favor with which the Eaton and Bradbury's Mathematical Series has been received has encouraged the authors to prepare this book. It is designed to meet the demand for a fuller treatment of Factoring, for more numerous examples for practice, and for the more advanced work now required in our best High Schools and Academies, and for admission to many of the Colleges. In all the subjects treated the exercises have been carefully graded to lead the student from the simple to the more difficult. Special attention is invited to the treatment of Positive and Negative Numbers in Chapter II., of Addition and Subtraction as a single topic, as well as Multiplication and Division, in both Integral and Fractional Numbers; to the arrangement of the equations in Elimination; to the interpretation of negative results, and of the forms, -, and -; and to the treatment of Affected Quadratic Equations. Although a work on Mathematics has a natural order for the development of topics, yet this may not be the best order for the pupil.
