The first edition of this book has been out of print for some time
and I have decided to follow the publisher's kind suggestion to
prepare a new edition. Many examples with explicit inversion
formulas and range theo rems have been added, and the
group-theoretic viewpoint emphasized. For example, the integral
geometric viewpoint of the Poisson integral for the disk leads to
interesting analogies with the X-ray transform in Euclidean
3-space. To preserve the introductory flavor of the book the short
and self-contained Chapter Von Schwartz' distributions has been
added. Here 5 provides proofs of the needed results about the Riesz
potentials while 3-4 develop the tools from Fourier analysis
following closely the account in Hormander's books (1963] and
[1983]. There is some overlap with my books (1984] and [1994b]
which however rely heavily on Lie group theory. The present book is
much more elementary. I am indebted to Sine Jensen for a critical
reading of parts of the manuscript and to Hilgert and Schlichtkrull
for concrete contributions men tioned at specific places in the
text. Finally I thank Jan Wetzel and Bonnie Friedman for their
patient and skillful preparation of the manuscript.
