The quantum groups discussed in this book are the quantized enveloping algebras introduced by Drinfeld and Jimbo in 1985, or variations thereof. The theory of q

The material is very well motivated ... Of the various monographs available on quantum groups, this one ... seems the most suitable for most mathematicians new

Algebra has moved well beyond the topics discussed in standard undergraduate texts on 'modern algebra'. Those books typically dealt with algebraic structures su
