This is primarily an exposition, combining work of several authors (Curtis,
Hsiang, Freedman, Stong, Matveyev, and Bizaca), of the proof that a smooth
5-dimensional h-cobordism between simply connected 4-manifolds is a product off
of a contractible piece which itself is diffeomorphic to the 5-ball.
