Summary: Not Great
Comment: Gallian's Contemporary Abstract Algebra is my required textbook for this course. I bought Schaum's Outline to supplement it and help me with some of the proofs. Instead, I found exactly the same worked-out examples from Gallian. My homework problems I was having trouble with were also under the "extra" problems section which does not have solutions. Basically this book was useless to me. If you aren't already using Gallian, that's the book you should get; this one would be okay if you want to save a few bucks.

Summary: Very well explained
Comment: I think this book would be good by itself in picking up algebraic theories and methods. Each section is well explained and the sample problems take you through the process step-by-step.
The only problem I have with the book is that not all the supplementary exercises (to test your understanding) have the answers. Some have an answer, some have a partial answer, some have a hint, and some have nothing. This is a little aggravating, but it does not take away from the book.

Summary: I become a mathematics fan.
Comment: I am an undergrad student in Computer Science. The content in this book is terse and very cohesive. And its cohesiveness is what I like most. Each successive chapter is developed rigorously upon previous chapters. A lot of proofs of most important theorems have been supplemented. These proofs I have been reading in awe, are real eye-openers. Mathematics had never been this entertaining.
I strongly recommend this book, especially if you don't know what Abstract Algebra is all about. I had no idea when I ordered...
