This book is intended as a course in numerical analysis and
approximation theory for advanced undergraduate students or graduate
students, and as a reference work for those who lecture or research in
this area. Its title pays homage to Interpolation and Approximation by
Philip J. Davis, published in 1963 by Blaisdell and reprinted by Dover
in 1976. My book is less g- eral than Philip Davis’s much respected
classic, as the quali?cation “by polynomials” in its title
suggests, and it is pitched at a less advanced level. I believe that
no one book can fully cover all the material that could
appearinabookentitledInterpolation and Approximation by Polynomials.
Nevertheless, I have tried to cover most of the main topics. I hope
that my readers will share my enthusiasm for this exciting and
fascinating area of mathematics, and that, by working through this
book, some will be encouraged to read more widely and pursue research
in the subject. Since my book is concerned with polynomials, it is
written in the language of classical analysis and the only
prerequisites are introductory courses in analysis and linear algebra.
