Description
Book SynopsisA novel, practical introduction to functional analysis In the twenty years since the first edition of Applied Functional Analysis was published, there has been an explosion in the number of books on functional analysis. Yet none of these offers the unique perspective of this new edition.
Trade Review“…full of interesting and/or amazing comments…an original and valuable contribution to functional analysis…” (
Bulletin of The Belgian Mathematical Society, Vol.11, No.4, 2004)
"Reflects author's background in numerical analysis, partial differential equations, and mathematical economics.... Good exercises." (American Mathematical Monthly, November 2001)
"The second edition has made some additions and some deletions..." (Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 946, No. 21)
