1988, Staff writer, Foreword, [1933, Norbert Wiener, The Fourier Integral and Certain of Its Applications], Cambridge University Press, 1988 reissue, page xi, Not only did the general Tauberian theorem give a unifying view on questions involving summations and limits, but it introduced a paradigm for what was called abstract harmonic analysis a few years later. […] Generalized harmonic analysis is the subject-matter of the last chapter, though it was conceived before the Tauberian theorems.
We should emphasize that our main concern is — besides the presentation of Tauberian theorems in the case of special summability methods — to put, by way of examples, different methods in the hands of the reader to prove Tauberian theorems in the case of special summability methods.
