It's not that the content is particularly difficult, it's just that Jacobson's notation (operators acting on the right, fraktur letters, etc.) combined with an antiquated approach to mathematical prose and also a|About the Author|
One of the world's leading researchers in abstract algebra, Nathan Jacobson (1910-95) taught at several prominent universities, including the University of Chicago, Johns Hopkins, and Yale.
Lie group theory, developed by M. Sophus Lie in the nineteenth century, ranks among the more important developments in modern mathematics. Lie algebras comprise a significant part of Lie group theory and are being actively studied today. This book, by Professor Nathan Jacobson of Yale, is the definitive treatment of the subject and can be used as a text for graduate courses. Chapter 1 introduces basic concepts that are necessary for an understanding of struc...
