Sep 7, 2013 at 21:15 comment added Arturo Magidin I seem to remember that "Groups and Geometry" by Peter Neumann, et al, places a lot of emphasis on groups as "acting groups" (that is, studying groups by what they do rather than what they are). But it's been a while since I looked through it. I'll try to take a look on Monday.

Sep 7, 2013 at 11:22 comment added user6976 @Marius: I do not know about Miles Reed, but most of Arnold's rants about education meant to be just provocative jokes. He also said, if I remember correctly, that most graduates from ENS in France cannot add fractions (because they are too busy studying schemes).
Sep 7, 2013 at 11:09 comment added user6976 @RyanBudney: The question is about an introductory course.
Sep 7, 2013 at 10:18 comment added Ryan Budney The subject of Geometric Group Theory has oodles of books, and they're all from the perspective of group actions / permutation / symmetry groups. Perhaps I'm biased from all my exposure to the 3-manifolds literature but my impression is that almost all modern group theory texts use this perspective as the primary perspective.
