I will be pleased if some one could introduce some books or Lecture notes to me.</p> http://mathoverflow.net/questions/62010/niemeier-lattice/62038#62038 Answer by Richard Borcherds for Niemeier Lattice Richard Borcherds 2011-04-17T14:26:33Z 2011-04-17T21:23:17Z <p>The standard reference is Conway and Sloane. If this is too much, you could try Wolfgang Ebeling's book "Lattices and codes A course partially based on lectures by F. Hirzebruch." Advanced Lectures in Mathematics. Friedr. Vieweg &amp; Sohn, Braunschweig, ISBN: 3-528-06497-8. This covers Venkov's classification of Niemeier lattices, and some properties of the Leech lattice</p>
