This work grew out of Errett Bishop's fundamental treatise 'Founda
tions of Constructive Analysis' (FCA), which appeared in 1967 and
which contained the bountiful harvest of a remarkably short period
of research by its author. Truly, FCA was an exceptional book, not
only because of the quantity of original material it contained, but
also as a demonstration of the practicability of a program which
most ma thematicians believed impossible to carry out. Errett's
book went out of print shortly after its publication, and no second
edition was produced by its publishers. Some years later, 'by a set
of curious chances', it was agreed that a new edition of FCA would
be published by Springer Verlag, the revision being carried out by
me under Errett's supervision; at the same time, Errett gener ously
insisted that I become a joint author. The revision turned out to
be much more substantial than we had anticipated, and took longer
than we would have wished. Indeed, tragically, Errett died before
the work was completed. The present book is the result of our
efforts. Although substantially based on FCA, it contains so much
new material, and such full revision and expansion of the old, that
it is essentially a new book. For this reason, and also to preserve
the integrity of the original, I decided to give our joint work a
title of its own. Most of the new material outside Chapter 5
originated with Errett."
