field and Galois theory

7 Feb 2001


      Hello,
all introductions to field and Galois theory I've found are written in a
"classical" way, i.e. making not much use of categorical notions. A lot of
computation is done where someone who is "categorical minded" has the
feeling that the results could be established in a more comprehensible and
clear way by category theory. -- Does somebody have a reference to a short
and good introduction to field and Galois theory from a categorical
viewpoint?

Thanks
