This is the sixth and last of the books that form the core of the Bourbaki series, comprising chapters 1-6 in English translation. One striking feature is its exposition of abstract harmonic analysis and the structure of locally compact Abelian groups. This English edition corrects misprints, updates references, and revises the definition of the concept of measurable equivalence relations.

Intégration is the sixth and last of the Books that form the core of the Bourbaki series; it draws abundantly on the preceding five Books, especially General Topology and Topological Vector Spaces, making it a culmination of the core six. The power of the tool thus fashioned is strikingly displayed in Chapter II of the author's Théories Spectrales, an exposition, in a mere 38 pages, of abstract harmonic analysis and the structure of locally compact abelian groups.
The present volume comprises Chapters 1-6 in English translation (a second volume will contain the remaining Chapters 7-9). The individual fascicles of the original French edition have been extensively reviewed. Chapters 1-5 received very substantial revisions in a second edition, including changes to some fundamental definitions. Chapters 6-8 are based on the first editions of Chs. 1-5. The English edition has given the author the opportunity to correct misprints, update references, clarify the concordance of Chapter 6 with the second editions of Chapters 1-5, and revise the definition of a key concept in Chapter 6 (measurable equivalence relations).
Inequalities of convexity.- Historical Note.- Riesz spaces.- Measures on locally compact spaces.- Extension of a measure. LP spaces.- Integration of measures.- Historical Note.- Vectorial integration.- Historical Note.
