"Redesigned for the 11th edition of Contemporary Abstract Algebra, Student Solutions Manual, written by the author, has comprehensive solutions for all odd-numbered exercises and a large number of even-numbered exercises. This Manual also offers many alternative solutions to those appearing in the text. These will provide the student with a better understanding of the material. This is the only available student solutions manual prepared by the author of Contemporary Abstract Algebra, Eleventh Edition and the only official one. It is designed to supplement the text and the author's original approach to instruction"--
