Geometry of the Quintic
by Jerry Shurman

ISBN/ASIN: 0471130176
ISBN-13: 9780471130178
Number of pages: 208
Description:
The text demonstrates the use of general concepts by applying theorems from various areas in the context of one problem -- solving the quintic. This book helps students at the advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate levels to develop connections between the algebra, geometry, and analysis that they know, and to better appreciate the totality of what they have learned.

Algebraic Equations
by George Ballard Mathews - Cambridge University Press
This book is intended to give an account of the theory of equations according to the ideas of Galois. This method analyzes, so far as exact algebraical processes permit, the set of roots possessed by any given numerical equation.
