"Beautifully motivated exposition!" American Mathematical Monthly "...a very welcome addition to a rather long list of recently published monographs concerning deep mathematics in Banach spaces from the last three decades--it is the first time that the important subject of 'summing operators' has been presented in almost complete detail in book form. Large parts of the book are within reach of graduate students, extensive 'notes and remarks' sections fill even sophisticated corners of the field with light--this book promises to be a future classic...this excellent book will have a wide audience which consists not only of interested students: there will be many mathematicians inside and outside of Banach spcae theory who will use it as a rich source for references and inspiration. Wonderful mathematics presented in striking fashion!" Andreas Defant, Mathematical Reviews
