It is an introduction to group theory, and could be read and enjoyed by anyone with minimal background in mathematics. I studied Group Theory for my PhD (although that was more than ten years ago now) but even so, I still learnt things from this book. The tool most used in the book are Cayley diagrams, and the diagrams in the book are wonderfully clear. The goal is to explain the basic concepts of group theory, and to build up the reader's intuition about groups - essential in what can often be a very dry and abstract subject. The book achieves this goal brilliantly, and several ideas and results become essentially obvious. The introduction of semi-direct products is the best I have ever read, and why the fundamental theorem of abelian groups is true is made so obvious it is almost trivial. The final two chapters cover Sylow's Theorems and Galois Theory. The Sylow Theorems are clearly proved and groups up to order 15 are classified. The final chapter gives a brief introduction to Galois Theory. Little is proved in this chapter, but the reader is given a sketch of what the theory is about and roughly how it works. It is an excellent taster for further study. The book contains a multitude of exercises which are mostly fairly straight forward, and if I had to criticise the book it would be for the lack of stretching exercises, but this is a very minor criticism; there are many other books which can stretch a keen student of group theory. This is an excellent book, and would be perfect reading for anyone beginning their study of group theory. Review: fantastic - Excellent! After searching so long for a good book that takes you from zero to significant understanding but in an intelligent way (visual here) I've found a book that does it. Writing is clear. Exercises are very well thought out and not there just to add volume to the book. You should do them. So much of mathematical/scientific writing is almost deliberately obscured by jargon or bad writing. In fact much of the material can be expressed to most intelligent or curious readers .. if it's presented and written well. Great book - and unlike some books this is printed very well on good materials. If I could have more I'd ask for more material on the symmetries in number theory. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 614,873 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 262 in Algebra (Books) 1,125 in Popular Science Maths 25,295 in Scientific, Technical & Medical | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 41 Reviews | ## Images ![Visual Group Theory (Classroom Resource Materials) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51cLbldDTOL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful book *by R***H on 16 February 2013* I really enjoyed reading this book.

After searching so long for a good book that takes you from zero to significant understanding but in an intelligent way (visual here) I've found a book that does it. Writing is clear. Exercises are very well thought out and not there just to add volume to the book. You should do them.

This book really helps you get a gut feeling as to what the various aspects of group theory are and how they are useful. One point to readers: even if you think you know group theory, it is well worth (essential?) to got through the exercises. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/624921343-visual-group-theory-classroom-resource-materials](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/624921343-visual-group-theory-classroom-resource-materials) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
