Synopsis

This book explores the subject of groups of finite order, an abstract structure prevalent in algebra and other branches of mathematics. Specifically, it focuses on introducing more advanced treatises to readers with an elementary knowledge of algebra (and specifically theory of numbers). The author has sought to simplify concepts where possible and provide numerous illustrative examples, providing a wealth of accessible material on a subject that is typically handled with greater complexity. Many classical theorems are demonstrated through novel approaches, with the author guiding the reader to a deeper understanding of group foundations, including subgroups, cyclic groups, permutations, substitutions, and geometrical elements. Through this exploration, the book offers a fresh perspective on classical group theory.
