This monograph provides a thorough treatment of two important parts ofcontemporary module theory approximations of modules and their applicationsnotably to infinite dimensional tilting theory and realizations of algebras asendomorphism algebras of groups and modules. Attention is also given to Eringsand free modules with distinguished submodules. The monograph starts from basicfacts and gradually develops the theory to its present frontiers. It issuitable for graduate students interested in algebra as well as experts inmodule and representation theory. «
