The aim of this dissertation at the outset is to give a survey of obstruction theories after Steenrod and to describe the various techniques employed by different researchers, the intricate perhaps subtle relation from one technique to another.
Owing to the difficulty in computing higher co-homology operations, one is led naturally to K-theory and the Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence. However, these and other recent developments especially those in the study of stable Postnikov systems go beyond the intention of this modest survey. / Science, Faculty of / Mathematics, Department of / Graduate
