The Theory of Infinite Soluble Groups

Aimed at research students and academic algebraists and group theorists, the central concept in this book is that of a soluble group - a group which is built up from abelian groups by repeatedly forming group extensions. This monograph covers all the major areas including finitely generated soluble groups, soluble groups of finite rank, modules over group rings, algorithmic problems, applications of cohomology, finitely presented groups, whilst remaining fairly strictly within the boundaries of soluble group theory.
