Summary: the source!
Comment: This is modern Galois Theory, straight from the horse's mouth! Galois Theory is taught today using field extensions rather than by actually solving polynomials, students also learn to view a field extension as a vector space over the smaller field; both of these things were pioneered by Artin. The book also has short, clear proofs of all the main theorems. The only problem is that there are no problems to work on, so I have to say this is only a good reference for Galois Theory.

Summary: Succinct exposition of modern Galois theory by a pioneer.
Comment: Emil Artin's short book gets a mention in most texts on
Galois theory. It is very short - only 60 odd pages. Yet
it is a very clear, complete and readable account of the
essential elements of modern Galois theory. It is based
on lectures he gave over 50 years ago but you might think
it was written only yesterday and is comprehensible to
anyone familiar with current abstract algebra terminology.
And the price makes it a bargain. There are no worked
examples, exercises or index here.

Summary: just enjoy
Comment: during reading this cute booklet, you can surely hear the gentle talk of an old math maven.(from the publishing date, the auther was 44 but that's my impression.) with a cup of coffee, stretch those edgy wrinkles of your brain.
