Reviews
'... a detailed and meticulous presentation of intersection homology by singular and PL chains.' Daniel Tanre, European Mathematical Society
'Overall, this monograph is a splendid introduction to noncommutative function-theoretic operator theory. Anyone interested in modern operator theory, function theory, and related areas of analysis will find this book a valuable reference.' Jaydeb Sarkar, MathSciNet
