Description:... During the last thirty years, much research has been devoted to the study of various properties of the second cohomology group, also known as the Schur multiplier. Clear and carefully developed, this book conveys a comprehensive picture of the current state of this subject and offers a unified treatment of a wealth of important results. It also provides a wide range of skill-sharpening mathematical techniques which will prove useful to graduate students and researchers in algebra.
