Abstract
We survey recent developments in the theory of quasiconformal map**s between metric spaces. We examine the various weak definitions of quasiconformality, and give conditions under which they are all equal and imply the strong classical properties of quasiconformal map**s in Euclidean spaces. We also discuss function spaces preserved by quasiconformal map**s.
