This book gives a systematic survey on the most significant results of interpolation theory in the last forty years. It deals with Lagrange interpolation including lower estimates, fine and rough theory, interpolatory proofs of Jackson and Teliakovski-Gopengauz theorems, Lebesgue function, Lebesgue constant of Lagrange interpolation, Bernstein and Erdös conjecture on the optimal nodes, the almost everywhere divergence of Lagrange interpolation for arbitrary system of nodes, Hermite-Fejer type and lacunary interpolation and other related topics.
