This is the first self-contained summary of non-Noetherian orders in a simple Artinian ring, a subject in which much progress has been made in the last decade. The contents of the book are mainly Dubrovin valuation rings and semi-hereditary orders, including Prufer and semi-local Bezout orders, which are considered, in a sense, as global theories of Dubrovin valuation rings. These are then developed further, and applied to give some examples such as Dubrovin valuation rings in crossed product algebras, semi-hereditary maximal order in certain matrix rings, and the idealizers of...
