Some observations on \(C_p\)-theory and bibliography (Q1295205)

The author gives a brief survey of \(C_p\)-theory by discussing some of the important results and the people involved with these results in different aspects of this subject. He gives some idea of the recent growth in the amount of research done in this area, and illustrates why \(C_p\)-theory can be considered as an application of general topology to functional analysis. An especially useful feature of this article is its large bibliography of 363 references to books and articles that relate to \(C_p\)-theory.
