Synopsis
When originally published, this text was the first general account of Hausdorff measures, a subject that has important applications in many fields of mathematics. The first of the three chapters contains an introduction to measure theory, paying particular attention to the study of non-sigma-finite measures. The second chapter develops the most general aspects of the theory of Hausdorff measures, and the final chapter gives a general survey of applications of Hausdorff measures followed by detailed accounts of two special applications. This new edition has a foreword by Kenneth Falconer outlining the developments in measure theory since this book first appeared. This book is ideal for graduate mathematicians with no previous knowledge of the subject, but experts in the field will also want a copy for their shelves.
