I am currently using Fulton and Harris for a course on representation theory, and I have noticed that there are a few errors throughout the book. A search on google with the keywords "Errata for Fulton and Harris" doesn't come up with anything.

I believe the book is widely used in many representation theory courses, and it would be helpful if a list of errata could be compiled. Does anyone know of any list of errata for this?

Thanks.

Errors I have found: On page 150 (in the middle) the line "...so the representation $W = \Bbb{C}\cdot x^2 \oplus \Bbb{C} \cdot xy \oplus \Bbb{C} \cdot y^2 = W_{-2} \oplus W_0 \otimes W_2$ is the..." should have a direct sum in place of tensor product in between $W_0$ and $W_2$.

Edit: In case this question gets closed, you may notify me of any errors by email: u5034323@anu.edu.au
