Further Reading and Online Resources

There are many books on Fourier theory and I cannot hope to list even all the introductory ones. This is a list of books that I have used over the years and have found useful – no more or less than that. My advice is to look around and find books that deal with aspects of the subject relevant to you in a manner that is accessible to you – and I hope that this book gives you a starting-point for accessing more advanced texts with confidence.
