Summary ""The book is largely self-contained ... There is a nice introduction to symplectic geometry and a charming exposition of equivariant K-theory. Both are enlivened by examples related to groups ... An attractive feature is the attempt to convey some informal 'wisdom' rather than only the precise definitions. As a number of results [are] due to the authors, one finds some of the original excitement. This is the only available introduction to geometric representation theory ... it has already proved successful in introducing a new generation to the subject."" (Bulletin of the AMS)
