Gilmore (physics, Drexel U.) takes an applications-base approach to Lie group theory as it relates to certain branches of applied mathematics and the physical sciences, basically distilling what he considers the most useful material of his much longer book Lie Groups, Lie Algebras, and Some of Their Applications (New York: Wiley, 1974). He begins with a discussion of Lie group theory's intellectual underpinnings in Galois theory and concludes with a chapter on the application of Lie group theory to solving differential equations, both subjects that are relatively rare in texts on Lie group theory. In between he offers chapters on matrix groups, Lie algebras, matrix algebras, operator algebras, EXPonentiation, structure theory for Lie algebras, root spaces and Dynkin diagrams, real forms, Riemannian symmetric spaces, contraction, hydrogenic atoms, and Maxwell's equations.
