Subgroups \(H_1,H_2,\dots\) of a group \(G\) form a partition of \(G\) if every \(g\neq 1\) in \(G\) lies in precisely one \(H_i\). The author gives a detailed historical survey of the theory of the partitions of finite groups from its beginnings in the early 1900s. There is a bibliography of 33 items.
