Synopsis

Central to this collection of papers are new developments in the general theory of localization of spaces. This field has undergone tremendous change of late and is yielding new insight into the mysteries of classical homotopy theory. The present volume comprises the refereed articles submitted at the Conference on Algebraic Topology held in Sant Feliu de Guíxols, Spain, in June 1994. Several comprehensive articles on general localization clarify the basic tools and give a report on the state of the art in the subject matter. The text is therefore accessible not only to the professional mathematician but also to the advanced student.

This volume comprises the articles submitted at the Conference on Algebraic Topology held at Sant Feliu de Guixols, Spain, in June 1994. Some articles on general localization clarify the basic tools and give a report on the state of the art in the subject matter.
