This book examines some recent developments in the theory of $C^*$-algebras, which are algebras of operators on Hilbert spaces. An elementary introduction to the technical part of the theory is given via a basic homotopy lemma concerning a pair of almost commuting unitaries. The book presents an outline of the background as well as some recent results of the classification of simple amenable $C^*$-algebra, otherwise known as the Elliott program. This includes some stable uniqueness theorems and a revisiting of Bott maps via stable homotopy. Furthermore, $KK$-theory related rotation maps are...
