If Birkhoff and Mac Lane is too intimidating for you...
By Fred Seelig on April 27, 1998
Format: Paperback
An easy-to-read self-study guide through the wonderful world of modern algebra. Excellent chapters on Z[sqrt(2)], and Q[sqrt(2)]. Symmetries, groups, tiling patterns, the 17 plane groups, fields. A whole chapter on error correcting codes. Written in the same friendly style as V. Bryant's "Aspects of Combinatorics" and R.P Burn's "A Pathway into Number Theory." Each section has many practical, insightful examples and a good problem set.

It's a gem.
By Thomas Adkins on February 14, 2014
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
The forward describes this book as a "trip to the modern algebra zoo", and it's a fit description. It shows many of the oddities that typical math courses don't touch at the high school or junior college level courses, and makes them available to the high school or junior college student who loves math. I wouldn't go so far as to say it's a modern tabloid of math, but it's close.

Fast shipping.
By cat love fish on June 6, 2014
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
The book itself gives you very very basic and simple theories, not even an example, but you are expected to do very very hard problems in the exercises. So definitely not recommended for self-learner.
