Items related to Exploratory Galois Theory
Combining a concrete perspective with an exploration-based approach, this analysis develops Galois theory at an entirely undergraduate level. The text grounds the presentation in the concept of algebraic numbers with complex approximations and only requires knowledge of a first course in abstract algebra. It introduces tools for hands-on experimentation with finite extensions of the rational numbers for readers with Maple or Mathematica.

Book Description:
Combining a concrete perspective with an exploration-based approach, Exploratory Galois Theory develops Galois theory at an entirely undergraduate level. The text grounds the presentation in the concept of algebraic numbers with complex approximations and assumes of its readers only a first course in abstract algebra. For readers with Maple or Mathematica, the text introduces tools for hands-on experimentation with finite extensions of the rational numbers, enabling a familiarity never before available to students of the subject. The text is appropriate for traditional lecture courses, for seminars, or for self-paced independent study by undergraduates and graduate students.
