COMBINATORIAL HOMOTOPY. J. H. C. WHITEHEAD. 1. Introduction. This is the first of a series of papers, whose aim is to clarify the theory of "nuclei" and "w-groups" and its relation to Reidemeister's1 Überlagerungen. Here we give a new definition of "^-groups," or n-types as we now propose to call them.
The Mathematical Works of J. H. C. Whitehead, Volume 2: Complexes and Manifolds contains papers that are related in some way to the classification problem for manifolds, especially the Poincare conjecture, but towards the end one sees the gradual transition in the direction of algebraic topology.
