This textbook is for a first undergraduate course in abstract algebra. It differs from the first edition in that it offers optional technology and less focus on interactivity. It has a more traditional approach where additional topics to the primary syllabus are placed after primary topics are covered, creating a more common table of contents. Where technology was the primary motivation of the first edition, this edition is transformed by historical notes and better explanations of why topics are covered.

This self-contained text makes the difficult subject of asymptotics easy to comprehend. It immediately introduces asymptotic notation and then applies this tool to familiar problems, including limits, inverse functions, and integrals. Along the way, the book explores the properties of some important functions in applied mathematics. Assuming no prior knowledge of differential equations, it explains the exact solution of only the simplest differential equations, such as first-order linear and separable equations.
