    For \(N\) a closed oriented \(3\)-manifold with fundamental group \(\pi\), the authors set up a surgery theory for the set of \textbf{Z}\(\pi\)-homology equivalences from other closed oriented \(3\)-manifolds to \(N\) modulo diffeomorphism. Very roughly, the resulting homology surgery obstruction map takes values in a set of congruence classes of certain non-singular Hermitian matrices. Analogous to the way all closed \(3\)-manifolds are identified with framed links in \(S^3\) modulo the Kirby calculus, there is a link description of this homology surgery theory. In this way the kernel of the surgery map leads to the class of \(\pi\)-algebraically split links in \(N\) and to finite type invariants. Ideas and results in [\textit{S. Garoufalidis, M. Goussarov} and \textit{M. Polyak}, Calculus of clovers and finite type invariants of 3-manifolds, Geom. Topol. 5, 75-108 (2001)] concerning finite type invariants of homology \(3\)-spheres based on surgery on algebraically split links are extended to closed orientable \(3\)-manifolds and \(\pi\)-algebraically split links. Milnor type invariants are shown to classify surgery equivalence, generalizing [\textit{J. Levine}, Topology 26, 45-61 (1987; Zbl 0611.57008)]. Finally, concordant links are shown to be surgery equivalent by a direct geometric argument.
