| The '''''ATLAS of Finite Groups''''', often simply known as the '''''ATLAS''''', is a [[group theory]] book by [[John Horton Conway]], [[Robert T. Curtis|Robert Turner Curtis]], [[Simon P. Norton|Simon Phillips Norton]], [[Richard A. Parker|Richard Alan Parker]] and [[Robert Arnott Wilson]] (with computational assistance from J. G. Thackray), published in December 1985 by [[Oxford University Press]] and reprinted with corrections in 2003 (ISBN 978-0-19-853199-9). It lists basic information about 93 finite [[Simple group|simple]] groups, the information being generally: its order, [[Schur multiplier]], [[outer automorphism group]], various constructions (such as [[Presentation of a group|presentations]]), conjugacy classes of [[maximal subgroup]]s (with characters [[group action]] they define), and, most importantly, [[character table]]s (including power maps on the conjugacy classes) of the group itself and bicyclic extensions given by stem extensions and automorphism groups. In certain cases (such as for the [[Group of Lie type|Chevalley groups]] <math>E_n(2)</math>), the character table is not listed and only basic information is given.

| The ATLAS is a recognizable large format book (sized 420mm by 300mm) with a cherry red cardboard cover and spiral binding.<!---This is worth mentioning because the ATLAS's appearance is very striking and easily memorized as it is often seen apart from other books in math libraries.---> The names of the authors, all six letters long, are printed on the cover in the form of an array which evokes the idea of a character table.

| The ATLAS is being continued in the form of an electronic database, the [http://brauer.maths.qmul.ac.uk/Atlas/v3/ ATLAS of Finite Group Representations].
