nLab Galois Theory
Unknown
Entry in nLab, the research-level wiki for category theory and higher mathematics, presenting Galois theory as an equivalence between field extensions and Galois-set categories, plus Grothendieck's generalisation to fundamental groups and covering spaces. Readers see how the classical correspondence fits unifying categorical frameworks.

Galois Theory
A widely used undergraduate textbook that develops Galois theory from its historical motivation, the solution of polynomial equations by radicals. It covers field extensions, ruler-and-compass constructions, the Galois correspondence and insolubility of the quintic, preparing readers to prove these classical results themselves.
