What is a very comprehensive text regarding Galois Theory?
I'm about to take a course in Galois Theory this spring, and I usually like to complement my course texts with something more rigorous, such as Rudin's Real and Complex Analysis or Ahlfor's Complex Analysis for my real/complex analysis courses, that way I can continue my learning even after a semester without skipping a beat.
I've heard of Lang's Algebra book, and it certainly seems to be good in terms of Algebra, but I wasn't sure how it stacked up when it came to Galois Theory. What say you, MSE?
Hungerford's book Algebra has excellent coverage of lots of topics, including Galois theory. It also has an excellent selection of problems. It is a good place for a first run through the subject, before you read something more specialized.
The 1984 book by H. M. Edwards looks like a a good choice for further study.
