OverviewPerhaps the first truly famous book devoted primarily to finite groups was Burnside's book. From the time of its second edition in 1911 until the appearance of Hall's book, there were few books of similar stature. Hall's book is still considered to be a classic source for fundamental results on the representation theory for finite groups, the Burnside problem, extensions and cohomology of groups, p-groups and much more. For the student who has already had an introduction to group theory, there is much treasure to be found in Hall's Theory of Groups.
