Abstract
This is a survey of the literature on hull classes of archimedean lattice-ordered groups with a designated unit. There has been a substantial amount of activity in this specialty in the last decade, and the goal here is to put the subj ect in some perspective, with an account of some of the history of accomplishments, as well as of the most recent progress.
