I want to say immediately that, despite the authoritative-sounding title, I am not claiming a proof of anything like the Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjecture. My intent here is only to explain the conjecture in various special cases, but maybe from an idiosyncratic point of view.
This paper is based on the text of the Coxeter-James Lecture given at the Winter Meeting of the Canadian Mathematical Society at Montreal in December, 1992.1 would like to thank the Society for awarding me the honour of giving this talk.
