Synopsis

Master the advanced algebra the way a college student would, with clear, thorough explanations and practical problem sets.

This edition offers a comprehensive treatment of algebraic topics from permutations and combinations to limits, series, and the beginnings of analytic function theory. It is designed for higher-class work in secondary schools and colleges, emphasizing a solid grasp of ideas that underlie the differential and integral calculus.

The text frames the subject as a long, coherent development, balancing rigorous proofs with worked examples and exercises. It ties algebra to newer ideas in analysis, probability, and actuarial calculation, making it suitable for students preparing for advanced study.
  • Learn methods for permutations, combinations, and related counting principles
  • Explore limits, convergence, and the foundations of the theory of functions
  • Study the exponential and logarithmic functions and their graphical behavior
  • Work through binomial and multinomial theorems, series, and expansions
  • See applications to probability, statistics, and actuarial calculation
Ideal for readers who want a solid, tradition-rich foundation in algebra that connects to modern ideas in analysis and applied mathematics, as well as for teachers seeking a rigorous classroom resource.
