This monograph introduces two approaches to studying Siegel modular forms: the classical approach as holomorphic functions on the Siegel upper half space, and the approach via representation theory on the symplectic group. By illustrating the interconnections shared by the two, this book fills an important gap in the existing literature on modular forms. It begins by establishing the basics of the classical theory of Siegel modular forms, and then details more advanced topics. After this, much of the basic local representation theory is presented. Exercises are featured heavily throughout the volume, the solutions of which are helpfully provided in an appendix. Other topics considered include Hecke theory, Fourier coefficients, cuspidal automorphic representations, Bessel models, and integral representation.

Graduate students and young researchers will find this volume particularly useful. It will also appeal to researchers in the areaas a reference volume. Some knowledge of GL(2) theory is recommended, but there are a number of appendices included if the reader is not already familiar.

"This book does a very good job of introducing, clearly and concisely, key definitions, concepts and foundational results, necessarily leaving much of the detail to exercises and references, while also giving a flavour of current research ... . It seems very much suited to its original target audience, but others, even those like me who couldn't be bothered doing the exercises, will find it an enlightening read, and will benefit from the well-judged choice of topics." (Neil P. Dummigan, Mathematical Reviews, December, 2019)
