<P>This book provides an exposition of the algebraic aspects of the theory of lattice-ordered rings and lattice-ordered modules. All of the background material on rings, modules, and lattice-ordered groups necessary to make the work self-contained and accessible to a variety of readers is included.</P> <P>Steinberg includes in his presentation of the material 800+ extensive exercises of varying levels of difficulty at the end of each of the sections. The first two chapters of the book provide a thorough introduction to the material, while the following four chapters delve into more specific topics. </P> <P>Key topics include:</P> <P>*lattice-ordered groups, rings, and fields;</P> <P>*archimedean $l$-groups;</P> <P>*f-rings and larger varieties of $l$-rings;</P> <P>*the category of f-modules;</P> <P>*various commutativity results.</P> <P>Filling a gap in the literature, <EM>Lattice-Ordered Rings and Modules</EM> may be used as a textbook or for self-study by graduate students and researchers studying lattice-ordered rings and lattice-ordered modules.</P>
