內容提要

　　group theory provides the natural mathematical language toformulate symmetry principles and to derive their consequences inmathematics and in physics. the 'special functions' of mathematicalphysics, which pervade mathematical analysis,classical physics, andquantum mechanics, invariably originate from underlying symmetriesof the problem although the traditional presentation of such topicsmay not expressly emphasize this universal feature. moderndevelopments in all branches of physics are putting more and moreemphasis on the role of symmetries of the underlying physicalsystems. thus the use of group theory has bee increasinglyimportant in recent years. however, the incorporation of grouptheory into the undergraduate or graduate physics curriculum ofmost universities has not kept up with this development. at best,this subject is offered as a special topic course, catering to arestricted class of students. symptomatic of this unfortunate gapis the lack of suitable textbooks on general group-theoreticalmethods in physics for all serious students of experimental andtheoretical physics at the beginning graduate and advancedundergraduate level. this book is written to meet precisely thisneed.
　　there already exist, of course, many books on group theory andits applications in physics. foremost among these are the oldclassics by weyl, wigner, and van der waerden. for applications toatomic and molecular physics, and to crystal lattices in solidstate and chemical physics, there are many elementary textbooksemphasizing point groups, space groups, and the rotation group.reflecting the important role played by group theory in modernelementary particle theory, many current books expound on thetheory of lie groups and lie algebras with emphasis suitable forhigh energy theoretical physics. finally, there are several usefulgeneral texts on group theory featuring prehensiveness andmathematical rigor written for the more mathematically orientedaudience. experience indicates, however, that for most students, itis difficult to find a suitable modern introductory text which isboth general and readily understandable.
