Abstract
The foundations of the theory of finite soluble groups were laid in an influential series of papers by P. Hall between 1928 and 1937. After 1950 the subject developed further thanks to the work of R.W. Carter, W. Gaschütz, B. Huppert, and others. This activity has resulted in a theory of great elegance. Here we can only present a small part of this theory; for a complete account see the recently published book [bl9].
