    Best General Algebra Book

    This is simply the best book to learn abstract algebra from. It has really outstanding chapters on group, ring and field theory, but this is not all: linear algebra, commutative algebra and some graduate topics like representation theory, algebraic geometry and homological algebra are presented in a way that is very well suited for self study: lots of motivation, good examples and good exercises. This book is the unique reference for algebra in the qualifying exam syllabus of the math phd program at Harvard University: check their homepage. I think there is not much left to say!
