Groups of prime power order. Volume 1 /

This is the first of three volumes on finite p-group theory. It presents the state of the art and in addition contains numerous new and easy proofs of famous theorems, many exercises (some of them with solutions), and about 1500 open problems. It is expected to be useful to certain applied mathemati...
