Chambert-Loir A. A Field Guide to Algebra 2005 torrent

Textbook in PDF format

This is a small book on algebra where the stress is laid on the structure of fields, hence its title. You will hear about equations, both polynomial and differential, and about the algebraic structure of their solutions.
