1. Basic symmetry concepts -- 2. Group theory -- 3. Unitary symmetry -- 4. Permutation symmetry -- 5. Young diagram -- 6. Quantum chromodynamics -- 7. Quark model -- 8. Bag models -- 9. Hadron physics -- 10. Glashow-Salam-Weinberg model -- 11. Symmetry in nuclei -- 12. Quarks in nuclei -- 13. Quark gluon plasma (QGP) -- 14. Topology for hadrons. A Chapman and Hall Book--cover.

This user-friendly book on group theory introduces topics in as simple a manner as possible and then gradually develops those topics into more advanced ones, eventually building up to the current state-of-the-art. By using simple examples from physics and mathematics, the advanced topics become logical extensions of ideas already introduced. In addition to being used as a textbook, this book would also be useful as a reference guide for graduates and researchers in particle, nuclear, and hadron physics--
