Hall was Sadleirian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge from 1953 to 1967. He was a distinguished mathematician and algebraist. These papers on soluble groups, up to and including the Hall-Higman paper and the one on theorems like Sylow's, are important to the development of finite group theory. His work on infinite groups, beginning with his 1953 paper on finitely generated soluble groups opened up many new areas of research. The work also includes the Queen Mary College Mathematics Notes volume, which is the closest Hall ever came to producing a text book. and is an introduction to nilpotent groups.
