This book is designed to be an introduction to harmonic analysis in Euclidean spaces. The subject has seen a considerable flowering during the past twenty years. We have not tried to cover all phases of this development. Rather, our chief concern was to illustrate various methods used in this aspect of Fourier analysis that exploit the structure of Euclidean spaces. In particular, we try to show the role played by the action of translations, dilations, and rotations. Another concern, not independent of this chief one, is to motivate the study of harmonic analysis on more general spaces having an analogous structure (such as arises in symmetric spaces). It is our feeling that the study of Fourier analysis in that context and, also, in other general settings, is more meaningful once the special Euclidean case is understood.
