    Customer Reviews:

    5 out of 5 stars Ian Stewart has done it again!   November 29, 2008
    What more can I say?

    Ian Stewart takes us on a journey through group theory to places you probably never considered, but in a completely fun and accessible manner. The historical tone of the book works really well, this book has inspired me to study galois theory in far greater depth.

    A MUST for anybody with an interest in mathematics.
