From the Preface (1960): "This book is devoted to an account of one of the branches of functional analysis, the theory of commutative normed rings, and the principal applications of that theory. It is based on [the authors’] paper written ... in 1940, hard on the heels of the initial period of the development of this theory ... "The book consists of three parts. Part one, concerned with the theory of commutative normed rings and divided into two chapters; the first containing foundations of the theory and the second dealing with more special problems.

Since 1845, the United States Naval Academy has prepared professional military leaders for the United States at its Annapolis, Maryland, campus.
