Abstract
In the preface to the first edition (1897) of his book [1] on the theory of finite groups, William Burnside wrote: ‘The subject is one which has hitherto attracted but little attention in this country; it will afford me much satisfaction if, by means of this book, I shall succeed in arousing interest among English mathematicians in a branch of pure mathematics which becomes the more fascinating the more it is studied.’ He returned to this point in his presidential address delivered to the London Mathematical Society on 12 November 1908.
