Symmetry Discovered: Concepts and Applications in Nature and Science3 reviews
Joe Rosen

Dover Publications, 1997

A classic in symmetry

+ Brief, but nice
+ An easily understood beginner's manual.

When it was first published in 1975, this book filled a gap in the literature. It still does. Simple and unassuming, it is the best introduction to symmetry that I ever read. A perfect introduction to the two subsequent books by Rosen himself, and to more advanced treatises, like Weyl's.

Because since he left us (sort of) the world has been steadily regressing, until now we are involved in war ...
