Integral Transformations, Operational Calculus, and Generalized Functions

It is not the object of the author to present comprehensive cov­ erage of any particular integral transformation or of any particular development of generalized functions, for there are books available in which this is done. Rather, this consists more of an introductory survey in which various ideas are explored. The Laplace transforma­ tion is taken as the model type of an integral transformation...
