Reviews
From the reviews of the second edition:"This book certainly has more than enough material for a two-semester algebra course for first-year graduate students. … The balance among various topics will please some instructors more than others." (Miklós Bóna, MathDL, September, 2007)"The book under review is the second edition of the author's sweeping text originally titled 'Algebra' … . All together, the second edition of P. A. Grillet's standard primer is a masterly, clearly written, comprehensive and self-contained algebra text for graduate students, with a plentiful supply of additional advanced material … . Moreover, the book under review, in its didactically oriented disposition, represents an excellent source for teachers and instructors of graduate courses in abstract algebra as well."

Synopsis
About the first edition: "The text is geared to the needs of the beginning graduate student, covering with complete, well-written proofs the usual major branches of groups, rings, fields, and modules...[n]one of the material one expects in a book like this is missing, and the level of detail is appropriate for its intended audience." (Alberto Delgado, MathSciNet) "This text promotes the conceptual understanding of algebra as a whole, and that with great methodological mastery. Although the presentation is predominantly abstract...it nevertheless features a careful selection of important examples, together with a remarkably detailed and strategically skillful elaboration of the more sophisticated, abstract theories." (Werner Kleinert, Zentralblatt) For the new edition, the author has completely rewritten the text, reorganized many of the sections, and even cut or shortened material which is no longer essential. He has added a chapter on Ext and Tor, as well as a bit of topology., About the first edition: "The text is geared to the needs of the beginning graduate student, covering with complete, well-written proofs the usual major branches of groups, rings, fields, and modules... n]one of the material one expects in a book like this is missing, and the level of detail is appropriate for its intended audience."

This new edition has been completed reworked and revised., The author has completely reworked this superb textbook for a fully updated new edition. He has reorganized many of the sections, and cut or shortened material which is no longer essential. He has added a chapter on Ext and Tor, as well as some topology. In all this is a new version of a classic that is now fit for purpose, a key text geared to the needs of the graduate student. It covers, with proofs, the usual major branches of groups, rings, fields, and modules. Its inclusive approach means that all of the necessary areas are explored, while the level of detail is ideal for the intended readership. The text tries to promote the conceptual understanding of algebra as a whole, doing so with a masterful grasp of methodology. Despite the abstract subject matter, the author includes a careful selection of important examples, together with a detailed elaboration of the more sophisticated, abstract theories.
