In writing this book, the editors commissioned eight experts in the field of Spectral Asymptotics to each contribute an article in their particular field of expertise. The written version of Hermann Weyl's famous Gibbs Lecture of 1948 is reprinted, as is the lecture given by Bryce DeWitt upon his acceptance of the Dirac Medal in 1987 for his view on Curved-Spacetime Propagators. The compilation is an interesting historical document as well as an invaluable resource for individuals seeking information on a specific subject.
