This textbook is a complete introduction to Lie groups for
undergraduate students. The only prerequisites are multi-variable
calculus and linear algebra. The emphasis is placed on the
algebraic ideas, with just enough analysis to define the tangent
space and the differential and to make sense of the exponential
map. This textbook works on the principle that students learn best
when they are actively engaged. To this end nearly 200 problems are
included in the text, ranging from the routine to the challenging
level. Every chapter has a section called 'Putting the pieces
together' in which all definitions and results are collected for
reference and further reading is suggested.
