This survey covers groups of homotopy self-equivalence classes of
topological spaces, and the homotopy type of spaces of homotopy
self-equivalences. For manifolds, the full group of equivalences
and the mapping class group are compared, as are the corresponding
spaces. Included are methods of calculation, numerous calculations,
finite generation results, Whitehead torsion and other areas. Some
330 references are given. The book assumes familiarity with cell
complexes, homology and homotopy. Graduate students and established
researchers can use it for learning, for reference, and to
determine the current state of knowledge.
