    In this paper, the authors presented transformation and summation formulae for bilateral basic hypergeometric series: \[\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{(a)_n}{(b)_n}z^n= \frac{(b/a;q)_\infty}{(b,bz/a;q)_\infty}\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}(a)_nz^n\] whenever \(\max\{|b/a|,|1/b|\}<|z|<1\) and \[\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}(a)_nz^n=\frac{(q,qz/a,az; q)_\infty}{(q/a,z; q)_\infty}\] whenever \(|1/a|<|z|<1\), where \((a)_n=(a;q)_\infty/(aq^n;q)_\infty\), \((a;q)_\infty=\prod_{j\geq0}(1-aq^j)\), and \((a_1,\ldots,a_s;q)_\infty=\prod_{j=1}^s(a_j;q)_\infty\). Moreover, they give another proof for Jacobi's triple product identity and present few applications of these results.
