E 'Infinite' Ring Spaces and E 'Infinite' Ring Spectraby J. P. May - Springer
The theme of this book is infinite loop space theory and its multiplicative elaboration. The main goal is a complete analysis of the relationship between the classifying spaces of geometric topology and the infinite loop spaces of algebraic K-theory.
