Lie Groups and Lie Algebras I - Foundations of Lie Theory Lie Transformation Groups

From the reviews:
"..., the book must be of great help for a researcher who already has some idea of Lie theory, wants to employ it in his everyday research and/or teaching, and needs a source for customary reference on the subject. From my viewpoint, the volume is perfectly fit to serve as such a source, ... On the whole, it is quite a pleasure, after making yourself comfortable in that favourite office armchair of yours, just to keep the volume gently in your hands and browse it slowly and thoughtfully; and after all, what more on Earth can one expect of any book?"
The New Zealand Mathematical Society Newsletter
"... Both parts are very nicely written and can be strongly recommended."
European Mathematical Society
