Group rings play a central role in the theory of representations of groups and are very interesting algebraic objects in their own right. In their study, many branches of algebra come to a rich interplay. This book takes the reader from beginning to research level and contains many topics that, so far, were only to be found in papers published in scientific journals and, whenever possible, offers contemporary proofs of known results. It also includes many historical notes and some applications.
