Can you recommend me a good textbook on group theory? I am interested in particular in tensor representation of a group, e.g. why $ 3 \otimes 3 = 6 \oplus \bar 3$ for $ \rm SU(3) $. Is there any textbook that can explain clearly that?

Lie Algebras in Particle Physics by Georgi definitely; also check out the lecture videos that are based on it at pirsa.org. – JamalS Oct 21 '16 at 08:19

As JamalS said, I would also suggest Georgi's book as #1 for your question. Also the one by S. Sternberg, Group Theory and Physics. If you want something more formal, check Fulton and Harris.
