Summary
This concisely written book provides an elementary introduction to approximation theory—a classical area of mathematics—in a way that naturally leads to the modern field of wavelets. Driven by ideas rather than technical proofs, the text covers polynomial approximation (Weierstrass\' and Taylor\'s theorems), infinite series, Fourier analysis, and the practical application of wavelets in digital signal processing and data compression. It is an excellent resource for students and instructors in pure and applied mathematics, mathematical physics, and engineering.
