abstract = {Lie groups, Lie algebras, and representation theory are the
main focus of this text. In order to keep the prerequisites
to a minimum, the author restricts attention to matrix Lie
groups and Lie algebras. This approach keeps the discussion
concrete, allows the reader to get to the heart of the
subject quickly, and covers all of the most interesting
examples. The book also introduces the often-intimidating
machinery of roots and the Weyl group in a gradual way,
using examples and representation theory as motivation. The
text is divided into two parts. The first covers Lie groups
and Lie algebras and the relationship between them, along
with basic representation theory. The second part covers the
theory of semisimple Lie groups and Lie algebras, beginning
with a detailed analysis of the representations of SU(3).
The author illustrates the general theory with numerous
images pertaining to Lie algebras of rank two and rank
three, including images of root systems, lattices of
dominant integral weights, and weight diagrams. This book is
sure to become a standard textbook for graduate students in
mathematics and physics with little or no prior exposure to
Lie theory. Brian Hall is an Associate Professor of
Mathematics at the University of Notre Dame},
