About Book
This book follows in the footsteps of the valuable work done during the seventies of systematizing the investigation of properties and structure of rings by using their categories of modules. A remarkable novelty in the present monograph is the study of semi perfect rings by means of quivers. Another good idea is the inclusion of the study of commutative as well as non-commutative discrete valuation rings. Each chapter ends with some illustrative historical notes.” (José Gómez Torrecillas, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1086 (12), 2006).This is the first of two volumes which aim to take the theory of associative rings and their modules from fundamental definitions to the research frontier. The book is written at a level intended to be accessible to students who have taken standard basic undergraduate courses in linear algebra and abstract algebra.
