Groups - Modular Mathematics Series

This text provides an introduction to group theory with an emphasis on clear examples. The authors present groups as naturally occurring structures arising from symmetry in geometrical figures and other mathematical objects. Written in a 'user-friendly' style, where new ideas are always motivated before being fully introduced, the text will help readers to gain confidence and skill in handling group theory notation before progressing on to applying it in complex situations. Zusammenfassung Part of a series in which each text covers material appropriate to a single semester-long module. The clear exposition is augmented by worked examples and exercises to match the expectations of students accustomed to a more student-centred learning approach. This book covers groups.
