Preface

Many problems in modern linear and nonlinear analysis are of infinite-dimensional nature. The theory of Banach spaces provides a suitable framework for the study of these areas, as it blends classical analysis, geometry, topology, and linearity. This in turn makes Banach space theory a wonderful and active research area in Mathematics. In infinite dimensions, neighborhoods of
