Useful for beginners in Group Theory
If you are having difficulty in getting started with Group Theory, this will help you, as modern books on the subject usually treat the basics in a rather cursory manner, but the book does not go very far into the theory, and some parts of it have been superseded by clearer explanations.

Good book but the rendition of formulae is abysmal
Good book but the rendition of formulae is abysmal on an iPad - barely legible - which is exactly what you don't need when trying to follow a proof.The top text box supposedly reads m<n.The rendition is considerably better on ibooks (yes I purchased again through iTunes this time).I shall try and get a refund from amazon.

Perfect, in a word
Alexandroff is the primary author, but I think of this as Perfect's book, for Hazel Perfect who with the assistance of G M Peterson made the translation from German to English; Lothar Uhlig made the translation from Russian to German. Perfect's translation is a humane and careful presentation of the matter; it is a joy to come under her instruction.
