>>11287914>>11288940>>11288964>>11289489>>11288947I am reading Stillwell's Elements of Algebra right now and it's probably the most organic, interesting and well-motivated entry to algebra I have ever read, short of reading the classics. My sincere recommendation to everyone starting algebra, read this book. It's sort of like a "Galois Theory: Lite" book, in that it mostly solves on solvability of equations and field extensions, but along the way it introduces groups, rings, isomorphisms, quotient constructions and so on. Read it, you won't regret it
