Book Synopsis
Representation theory studies maps from groups into the general linear group of a finite-dimensional vector space.

Trade Review
From the reviews: "The book under review is an introduction to the modular representation theory of finite groups with a somehow balanced approach to the subject. ... the book is almost self-contained. It has the lightness of a gentle-paced lecture course and could be used with profit for an introduction to the methods of representation theory of finite groups, either in a formal course or for self-study." (Felipe Zaldivar, MAA Reviews, May, 2013)
