Loops and quasigroups: Aspects of current work and prospects for the future
Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae, Tome 41 (2000) no. 2, pp. 415-427
This paper gives a brief survey of certain recently developing aspects of the study of loops and quasigroups, focussing on some of the areas that appear to exhibit the best prospects for subsequent research and for applications both inside and outside mathematics.
