Review text

The author describes methods of constructing matrix representations for finite groups. He also describes applications of the methods to various simple groups. It may be helpful to point out an error on page 64 concerning the three-dimensional matrix representations of \(A_5\). According to the author's notations we must have \(\beta,\gamma={1\over 4}(-1\pm\sqrt 5)\) and therefore the last two matrices displayed on page 64 have wrong entries. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0920.00022].
