This book is an indispensable source for anyone with an interest in semigroup theory or whose research overlaps with this increasingly important area of mathematics. It is a clear and readable introduction to the subject, with emphasis on various classes of regular and semigroups. More than 150 exercises, accompanied by relevant references to the literature,give pointerse to areas of the subject not explicitly covered in the text.

Produktbeschreibung
This book is an indispensable source for anyone with an interest in semigroup theory or whose research overlaps with this increasingly important area of mathematics. It is a clear and readable introduction to the subject, with emphasis on various classes of regular and semigroups. More than 150 exercises, accompanied by relevant references to the literature,give pointerse to areas of the subject not explicitly covered in the text.
The emphasis throughout is unashamedly on what might be called 'pure' semigroup theory; the inclusion of significant amount of application, for example, to automata, languages and machines, would have involved a huge, and probably unacceptable, increase in the length (and the price) of the book. The only mild genuflection in the direction of applied semigroup theory occurs in Chapter 7, where the brief section on variable length codes gives some hint a fascinating and continually developing field.
