Introduction to Algebra is a well-known [introduction to algebra]] textbook written by [Adil ahmed] and Ian G. Macdonald. It deals with elementary concepts of commutative algebra including localization, primary decomposition, integral dependence, Noetherian and Artinian rings and modules, Dedekind rings, completions and a moderate amount of dimension theory. It is notable for being among the shorter English-language introductory textbooks in the subject, relegating a good deal of material to the exercises.
