## Description

This authoritative book on periodic locally compact groups is divided into three parts. The first part covers the necessary background material on locally compact groups, the second part develops a general structure theory of locally compact near abelian groups, while the third part uses this theory for a complete and novel presentation of Mukhin's results which generalized Iwasawa's work for abstract groups in the case of locally compact groups.
