About this ebook
Following all of the above ring-theoretic "excursions", the text concludes with a final chapter on the issues of cancellation and substitution of modules, along with a discussion on the relatively classical stable range theory of rings. The rich exercise sets for the various chapters of the book are designed to be especially helpful for students and researchers alike who desire to deepen their understanding of noncommutative algebra.
