As one of the world's most influential algebraists, Philip Hall is renowned for groundbreaking work in his field. The papers in this collection of his works are models of lucidity that offer relevant information for today's mathematicians and group theorists. The sequence of papers on soluble groups, up to and including his Hall-Higman paper and one on "Theorems Like Sylow's", are of fundamental importance to the development of finite group theory. Also included is Hall's Queen Mary College Mathematics Notes volume, which remains an excellent introduction to nilpotent groups.
Contains a transcript of twelve letters by David Hall to his wife Mary and two sons, written on board the Eagle and from Melbourne, Bendigo and Spring Creek, 4 Jan. 1853-10 Feb. 1855; a photocopy of his letter of 10 Feb. 1855; an introduction by Philip W. Hall, jun., and Thomas Wells Hall II; a summary of the letters; and photographs of David Hall, Philip W. Hall, jun. and Thomas Wells Hall II.

This volume celebrates the major impact on modern group theory made by Philip Hall. The survey articles were commissioned to provide reasonably self-contained, up-to-date and forward-looking accounts of finite and infinite group theory. Mathematicians working on group theory and ring theory will find this volume interesting and useful, and the material is accessible to students specializing in algebra. This book was prepared for Philip Hall's 80th birthday, but is now published after his death as a tribute to his genius. FROM THE PREFACE: This book was to have been an eightieth birthday present for Philip Hall. In the summer of 1980 the Council of the London Mathematical Society asked us to ...

Beth Lambert's got everything going for her at school, and she's sure all of her dreams will come true. But that was before Philip Hall became #1 again. Beth's going to show him up--in style!
The majority of the offending toxicants to be reviewed in this volume were devel oped to help mankind, and it is only with prolonged or widespread application that their adverse effects have been recognized. Conversely, in the case of pre scrip tion drugs, there has been an attempt to identify the adverse effects in advance and incorporate these risks into the decision of approval for human consumption. Unfortunately, for those drugs in which recognized injury occurs only after prolonged use, such appraisals are made in retrospect. Despite this, most renal injury induced by drugs or toxicants can be either prevented by excluding drugs with unacceptable side effects or interrupted by eliminat...

Join the irrepressible Beth Lambert as she goes home after a long visit with her grandmother in Walnut Ridge, Arkansas. Beth is happy to see her friends the Pretty Pennies, and even happier to see her family (and eat her mother's fried turkey, tamale pie, and floradora potatoes), but she might just be happiest of all to see her best friend, Philip Hall. But not for long, because Philip gets it into his head (with a little help from Beth) that she made a new friend in Walnut Ridge -- a boyfriend. Now Philip won't rest until he meets this "nutty Walnutter" face-to-face in an arm-wrestling match in front of the whole town. There's only one problem -- Beth's new friend doesn't exist. She made him up! Once again Beth's mouth has gotten her into trouble. And once again she'll have to do some fast talking to see if she can get herself out of it.
