The fundamentals of massive star evolution are mostly understood, but the roles of mass loss, episodic mass loss, rotation, and binarity are still in question. Moreover, the final stages of these stars of different masses and their possible relation to each other are not understood. The purpose of this volume is to provide a current review of the different populations of evolved massive stars. The emphasis is on massive stars in the Local Group, the Magellanic Clouds, and the nearby spirals M31 and M33. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aAstronomy, space & time$2bicssc 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aAstronomy, space & time 700 $aHumphreys$b Roberta M$4edt$01281269 702 $aHumphreys$b Roberta M$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557287203321 996 $aLuminous Stars in Nearby Galaxies$93018446 997 $aUNINA
