Groups and characters

Description:

"Groups and Characters offers an easy-to-follow introduction to the theory of groups and of group characters. Designed as a rapid survey of the subject, this unique text emphasizes examples and applications of the theorems, and avoids many of the longer and more difficult proofs.". "Groups and Characters provides the ideal grounding for more advanced studies with the classic texts, and for more broadly based work in abstract algebra. Furthermore, physical scientists - whose experience with groups and characters may not be rigorous - will find Groups and Characters an ideal text for gaining a sense of the mathematics lying behind the techniques used in applications."--BOOK JACKET.
