This book provides a self-contained introduction to quantum groups as algebraic objects. Based on the author's lecture notes from a Part III pure mathematics course at Cambridge University, it is suitable for use as a textbook for graduate courses in quantum groups or as a supplement to modern courses in advanced algebra. The book assumes a background knowledge of basic algebra and linear algebra. Some familiarity with semisimple Lie algebras would also be helpful. The book is aimed as a primer for mathematicians and takes a modern approach leading into knot theory, braided categories and noncommutative differential geometry. It should also be useful for mathematical physicists.
'… would serve admirably - as the author suggests - as the basis for a taught graduate course … this book is a clearly written painless read. I can recommend this text as an entry work for those wishing to acquaint themselves with the still popular topic of quantum groups.' A. I. Solomon, Contemporary Physics
