The theory of finite fields is a branch of modern algebra that has come to the fore in recent years because of its diverse applications in such areas as combinatorics, coding theory, cryptology and the mathematical study of switching circuits. This book presents an introduction to this theory, and contains a discussion of the most important applications of finite fields.
