Kaplansky I. Fields and Rings 1969 torrent

Textbook in PDF and DJVU formats

These lecture notes combine three items previously available from Chicago's Department of Mathematics: Theory of Fields, Notes on Ring Theory, and Homological Dimension of Rings and Modules. I hope the material will be useful to the mathematical community and more convenient in the new format. A number of minor changes have been made; these are described in the introductions that precede the three sections. One point should be noted: the theorems are numbered consecutively within each section. Since there are no crossreferences between the sections, no confusion should result. I trust the reader will not mind a lack of complete consistency, e.g. in Part Il the modules are right and the mappings are placed on the right, while in Part III both get switched to the left.
