From the Preface: ``The twin aims of this book are: to take the student from ordinary degree studies into the research field covered by the Wiener-Hopf technique, and to provide the research worker with a reasonably comprehensive summary of what can and what cannot be done at the moment by the technique. The reader's attention is drawn particularly to the various methods for approximate solution of problems. One of the remarkable features is the range of apparently unrelated topics covered by ramifications of the technique. It is hoped that some of the comments in the text and in examples may suggest suitable lines for further research ... The material in this book should be accessible to anyone who is familiar with the Laplace transform, its complex inversion formula, and integration in the complex plane.''
