“The book is carefully written, with illuminating introductory theoretical parts and well chosen problems with hints and solutions. It will be of help to all students studying functional analysis or related fields as well as an auxiliary instrument in the teaching process.” (Stefan Cobzaş, zbMATH 1557.46001, 2025)
