The paper under review proves new results on strongly prime rings. It is shown that the quasi-injective hull of a strongly prime module is the largest strongly prime module contained in the injective hull of \(M\). Moreover a new proof is given for the fact that a module \(M\) is strongly prime if and only if its quasi-injective hull \(Q(M)\) is simple as an \(R\)-End\((Q(M))\)-bimodule. Furthermore, it is shown that each strongly prime left ideal of a ring \(R\) arises from a maximal ideal in a certain free algebra. The intersection of a finite number of ``equivalent'' strongly prime left ideals \(I_k\) is shown to be strongly prime and equivalent to each \(I_k\). In the last section the relation between the Levitzki radical and the left strongly prime radical of a ring is explored. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1006.00014].
