Introduction to Banach Spaces and Algebras

Zusatztext This well-crafted and scholarly book ...leaves nothing to be desired: this is a fine way to get into this beautiful in a subject and will serve to reel in a huge number of futureews devotees. Informationen zum Autor Graham Allan was a student of mathematics at Cambridge University, England, and obtained his PhD there in 1964. After periods as a Fellow at Cambridge, as a lecturer at the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and as Professor of Pure Mathematics at the University of Leeds, Graham returned to Cambridge as a lecturer in mathematics in 1978, and he became a Reader in Functional Analysis in 1980. Graham was a Fellow of Churchill College from 1978, Director of Studies in Mathematics from 1985, and Vice-Master of the College 1990-93.
