This book is a study of group theoretical properties of two disparate kinds, firstly finiteness conditions or generalizations of finiteness and secondly generalizations of solubility or nilpotence. It will be particularly interesting to discuss groups which possess properties of both types. The origins of the subject may be traced back to the nineteen twenties and thirties and are associated with the names of R. Baer, S.N. Cernikov, K.A. Hirsch, A.G. Kuros, 0.]. Schmidt and H. Wielandt. Since this early period, the body of theory has expanded at an increasingly rapid rate through the efforts of many group theorists, particularly in Germany, Great Britain and the Soviet Union. Some of the highest points attained can, perhaps, be found in the work of P. Hall and A.I. Mal'cev on infinite soluble groups. Kuras's well-known book "The theory of groups" has exercised a strong influence on the development of the theory of infinite groups: this is particularly true of the second edition in its English translation of 1955. To cope with the enormous increase in knowledge since that date, a third volume, containing a survey of the contents of a very large number of papers but without proofs, was added to the book in 1967

This book is a study of group theoretical properties of two disparate kinds, firstly finiteness conditions or generalizations of finiteness, and secondly generalizations of solubility or nilpotence. Particularly interesting are the groups which possess properties of both types. This volume collects the most important results in the theory, to present them in a compact and accessible form with improved and shortened proofs wherever possible. Readers should have a good basic knowledge of group theory, Abelian groups, and the more familiar parts of commutative algebra and ring theory.

This second volume of the two-volume book contains selected papers from the conference 'Groups St Andrews 2001 in Oxford'. The articles are contributed by a number of leading researchers and cover a wide spectrum of modern group theory. There are articles based on lecture courses given by five main speakers together with refereed survey and research articles. The 'Groups St Andrews' proceedings volumes are a snapshot of the state of the art in group theory and they often play an important role in future developments in the subject.

The central concept in this monograph is that of a soluble group - a group which is built up from abelian groups by repeatedly forming group extensions. It covers all the major areas, including finitely generated soluble groups, soluble groups of finite rank, modules over group rings, algorithmic problems, applications of cohomology, and finitely presented groups, whilst remaining fairly strictly within the boundaries of soluble group theory. An up-to-date survey of the area aimed at research students and academic algebraists and group theorists, it is a compendium of information that will be especially useful as a reference work for researchers in the field.
