Description: This book gives a systematic introduction to the theory of classes of groups, including research subjects, major (recent) research achievements, and directions for future research. It clearly and concisely treats a wealth of topics, such as a brief introduction to the fundamental knowledge of group theory; the classical part of the theory of classes of groups covering mainly F-covering subgroups, F-projectors, F-injectors and F-normalisers; local formations; Schunck classes; Fitting classes; properties of local formations; formation constructions of finite groups and related applications; and the algebra of formations. Audience: This volume will be of interest to mathematicians involved in group theory and generalisations, algebras, order, lattices, ordered algebraic structures, general mathematical systems and the mathematics of physics and chemistry.
