This can be used as either a standalone problem book or as a kind of solution manual for Lam's brilliant A First Course in Noncommutative Rings. It includes all of the problems from the First Course, with full solutions. The problems tend to be difficult and sometimes tricky, so having solutions is a very good thing.
