Resoundingly popular, it still serves its purpose very well, but mathematics education has changed considerably since 1973. The time has come to bring this presentation in line with more modern approaches. While preserving and extending the most popular features of the previous editions, the author has reorganized the material to place the concrete before the abstract. He has also added more technical history, incorporated several newer proofs, and revived some classical topics. There is simply no more engaging, no more accessible, no.
