IN THIS paper I shall describe a method of associating a spectrum, and hence a cohomology theory, to a category with a composition-law of a suitable kind. The work is one possible formulation of Quillen’s ideas about algebraic K-theory, and I am very grateful to him for explaining them to me.Two applications of the method are included. The first is to prove the theorem of Barratt, Priddy and Quillen [3],[13] relating the space 0 F to the classifying-spaces of the symmetric groups. This asserts that the cohomology theory arising from the category of finite sets (under disjoint union) is stable cohomotopy.
