It is well known that the Drazin inverse has been widely applied to the theory of finite Markov chains and singular differential and difference equations. In a classic paper \textit{T. N. E. Greville} [SIAM Rev. 8, 518-521 (1966; Zbl 0143.26303)] gave necessary and sufficient conditions of the reverse order law for the Moore-Penrose inverse \((AB)^{+}= B^{+}A^{+}\) to hold for two complex matrices \(A\) and \(B\). In general, the reverse order law does not hold for the Drazin inverse, that is \((AB)^{D} \neq B^{D}A^{D}\). Drazin proved that \((AB)^{D} = B^{D}A^{D}\) holds under the condition \(AB = BA\). In the paper under review the author gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the \(n\) term reverse order law \((A_1A_2\cdots A_n)^{D} = A_n^DA_{n-1}^D \cdots A_2^D A_1^D\) in terms of some rank equality.
