Product Description Awarded the American Mathematical Society Steele Prize for Mathematical Exposition, this Introduction, first published in 1968, has firmly established itself as a classic text. Yitzhak Katznelson demonstrates the central ideas of harmonic analysis and provides a stock of examples to foster a clear understanding of the theory. This new edition has been revised to include several new sections and a new appendix. Review "Katznelson's An Introduction to Harmonic Analysis is, of course, a classic...So the first thing to say is 'thank you,' to Cambridge for doing this new edition, and to Prof. Katznelson for undertaking the task of updating his book...It is an ambitious book, moving all the way from Fourier series to Banach algebras and analysis on locally compact abelian groups. It is densely but clearly written, with the occasional flash of wit." MAA Reviews, Fernando Q. Gouvea Book Description A reissue of a classic text on a central topic. Book Description First published in 1968, this Introduction has firmly established itself as a classic text and a favorite for students and experts alike. Yitzhak Katznelson begins with an exposition of classical Fourier series. His aim is to demonstrate the central ideas of harmonic analysis and provide a stock of examples to foster a clear understanding of the theory. This new edition has been revised to include several new sections and a new appendix. About the Author Yitzhak Katznelson received his Ph.D. from the University of Paris. He is currently a Professor of mathematics at Stanford University, and has also taught at University of C alifornia, Berkeley, Hebrew University andYale University. His mathematical interests include harmonic analysis, ergodic theory, and differentiable dyamics
