"This handy book explains the theory of groups and examines fundamental theorems and their application. Beginning with discussions of sets, systems, groups, permutations, isomorphism, and similar topics, the author progresses in easy stages through the important types of groups. Except for a single chapter when an understanding of theory of matrices is helpful, no knowledge of higher mathematics is necessary for the reader to follow the author's presentation." Excellent book! This is one book you will not find in most used book stores. *6BC2
