howard georgi is the co-inventor (with sheldon glashow) of the su(5) theory. this extensively revised and updated edition of his classic text makes the theory of lie groups accessible to graduate students, while offering a perspective on the way in which knowledge of such groups can provide an insight into the development of unified theories of strong, weak, and electromagnetic interactions.
