Abstract

An exposition of several homology and cohomology theories is given. Particular emphasis is placed on coarse homology and coarse analogues of the Eilenberg-Steenrod axioms. Relations between coarse homology and end homology are considered, and an isomorphism between these two theories is proved under a certain contractibility condition on the underlying space.
