Description

Book Synopsis
This book presents a new version of the local analysis section of the Feit–Thompson theorem. It includes a recent (1991) significant improvement by Feit and Thompson and a short revision by T. Peterfalvi of the separate final section of the second half of the proof.

Trade Review
'This book is written well … the authors have succeeded both in simplifying the proof of the Odd Order Theorem and in making it accessible to a wider audience.' Paul Flavell, Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society
