The Classical and Quantum 6j-symbols by J Scott Carter

Addressing physicists and mathematicians alike, this book discusses the finite dimensional representation theory of sl(2), both classical and quantum. Covering representations of U(sl(2)), quantum sl(2), the quantum trace and color representations, and the Turaev-Viro invariant, it is useful to graduate students and professionals.
"Overall this book would serve as an excellent introduction for students or mathematicians to any of the subjects included (representation theory of U(sl2) and Uq(sl2), Penrose/Kauffman style diagrammatics, Turaev-Viro theory).. "--Mathematical Reviews
