Summary
The first edition of this book was published in 1980 in the LMS Lecture Note Series, and a Russian translation by V.V. Peller and A.G. Tumarkin, made under the direction of V.P. Havin, the editor, appeared in 1984.
Both versions of the book are now out of print, and for the past couple of years people have been asking me how they might procure a copy of it. The Cambridge University Press has therefore decided to put out a second edition, and I am grateful to Dr. David Tranah, the Press' senior mathematics editor, for his having arranged to issue it in somewhat improved typographical format as a Cambridge Tract.
In preparing the first edition I had tried to make the exposition as accessible as I could by concentrating on what I thought were the main ideas in the subject rather than on including as many results as possible. The readers I had in mind were those with some training in analysis who were trying to gain a secure foothold in the theory of Hp spaces, whether with the aim of eventually doing serious work in that subject or for the purpose of understanding its applications in other areas (e.g. in operator theory – some of the material is now even used in electrical engineering). I have been guided by the same concern while working on the second edition and have for that reason tried to preserve the book's original character.
