This paper is a study of functions of the form \[ f(z)=z/(1+\sum^{\infty}_{k=1}b_ kz\quad k) \] analytic in the disk. A necessary and sufficient condition is given for log(f(z)/z) in order that f(z) be \(\lambda\) spirallike and the region of variability of log(f(z)/z) is found. Conditions on the \(b_ k\) are given to insure that f(z) be a Robertson function. Some mapping properties of spirallike and Robertson functions of this form are established. The basic definitions are given in [the reviewer, Can. J. Math. 19, 449-456 (1967; Zbl 0181.081) and \textit{M. S. Robertson}, Mich. Math. J. 16, 97-101 (1969; Zbl 0175.366)].
