With the classification of the finite simple groups complete, much work has gone into the study of maximal subgroups of almost simple groups. In this volume the

Classification of Finite Simple Groups, one of the most monumental accomplishments of modern mathematics, was announced in 1983 with the proof completed in 2004

These proceedings of 'Groups St Andrews 2017' provide a snapshot of the state-of-the-art in contemporary group theory.

Classification of Finite Simple Groups (CFSG) is a major project involving work by hundreds of researchers. The work was largely completed by about 1983, althou
