The KK-theory of Kasparov is now approximately twelve years old;
its power, utility and importance have been amply demonstrated.
Nonethe less, it remains a forbiddingly difficult topic with which
to work and learn. There are many reasons for this. For one thing,
KK-theory spans several traditionally disparate mathematical
regimes. For another, the literature is scattered and difficult to
penetrate. Many of the major papers require the reader to supply
the details of the arguments based on only a rough outline of
proofs. Finally, the subject itself has come to consist of a number
of difficult segments, each of which demands prolonged and
intensive study. is to deal with some of these difficul Our goal in
writing this book ties and make it possible for the reader to "get
started" with the theory. We have not attempted to produce a
comprehensive treatise on all aspects of KK-theory; the subject
seems too vital to submit to such a treatment at this point. What
seemed more important to us was a timely presen tation of the very
basic elements of the theory, the functoriality of the KK-groups,
and the Kasparov product."
