Preface
These notes were designed as lecture notes for a first course in Operator
Algebras. The student is assumed to have already taken a first course in
Linear Analysis. In particular, they are assumed to already know the Hahn-
Banach Theorem, the Open Mapping Theorem, etc. A list of those results
which will be used in the sequel is included in the second section of the first
chapter.
