'This is a wonderful book, full of the latest material on Toeplitz matrices and operators, including norms, spectra, pseudospectra, fields of values, and polynomial hulls. The notes at the end of the chapters are especially interesting and the exercises are challenging. The writing is careful and precise but also entertaining.' Anne Greenbaum, Professor of Mathematics, University of Washington 'This book ... Read moreis a tremendous resource for all aspects of the spectral theory of banded Toeplitz matrices. It will be the first place I turn when looking for many results in this field, and given this book's amazing breadth and depth, I expect to find just what I need.'
