هدف اصلی نویسنده در این کتاب نمایش آن قسمت از نظریه اندازه است که در سال های قبل از انتشار کتاب تاثیر بسیار مثبت و کاربردی خود را در زمینه آنالیز مدرن به نمایش گذاشته بود. و همین موضوع سبب می شود که این کتاب هم برای دانشجویان مفید واقع شود و هم منبعی مناسب برای محققان در زمینه ریاضیات پیشرفته باشد.
