Character theory of finite groups. (reprint, 1976).

Character theory of finite groups In mathematics, a finite group is a group which has finitely many elements. Some aspects of the theory of finite groups were investigated in great depth in the twentieth century, in particular the local theory, and the theory of solvable groups and nilpotent groups. .

For readers who have completed a first-year graduate algebra algebra, branch of mathematics concerned with operations on sets of numbers or other elements that are often represented by symbols. Algebra is a generalization of arithmetic and gains much of its power from dealing symbolically with elements and operations (such as  course, Isaacs explains the properties of characters generated by character theory and how these properties reflect and are reflected in the structure of the group. He also discusses techniques for applying characters to pure group theory. The 1976 edition was published by Academic Press, New York New York, state, United States
