Near-Rings and Near-Fields

The present volume contains the written version of three invited lectures and sixteen papers presented in the International Conference on Near-Rings and Near-Fields held in Stellenbosch, South Africa. These articles reflect contemporary research activities on the algebraic structure theory of near-rings and the interaction they have with group theory, geometry and combinatorics. Audience: This book will be of value to graduate students of mathematics and algebraists interested in all aspects of the near-ring theory.
