Product Description
This new and much expanded edition of a well-received book remains the only text available on the subject of symmetric functions and Hall polynomials. There are new sections in almost every chapter, and many new examples have been included throughout.

*The* reference for this stuff, but it's poorly indexed June 4, 1998
Timothy Chow
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is *the* reference for symmetric functions and related topics. The second edition is greatly expanded, including (among other things) valuable material on Macdonald polynomials (though the author modestly does not refer to them by this term). The exposition is clean and to the point, as we have come to expect of Macdonald. The only defect of the book is that it can be hard to find things in it. The index is much too short, and much of the material is presented in long lists of disconnected "examples" that are very hard to search through quickly.
