Representations and Cohomology: Volume 1, Basic Representation Theory of Finite Groups and Associative AlgebrasThis is the first of two volumes providing an introduction to modern developments in the representation theory of finite groups and associative algebras, which have transformed the subject into a study of categories of modules. Thus, Dr. Benson's unique perspective in this book incorporates homological algebra and the theory of representations of finite dimensional algebras. This volume is primarily concerned with the exposition of the necessary
