Critics Review

‘This 2-volume book is a very welcome addition to the existing literature in modular representation theory. It contains a wealth of material much of which is here presented in textbook form for the first time. It gives an excellent overview of the state of the art in this fascinating subject and also of the many challenging and fundamental open problems. It is well written and will certainly become a standard reference.’ Burkhard Kűlshammer, MathSciNet
