The theory of abstract groups comes into play in an astounding number of seemingly unconnected areas like crystallography and quantum mechanics, geometry and topology, analysis and algebra, physics, chemistry and even biology. Readers need only know high school mathematics, much of which is reviewed here, to grasp this important subject. Hundreds of problems with detailed solutions illustrate the text, making important points easy to understand and remember.
