Lester Ford's book was the first treatise in English on automorphic functions. At the time of its publication (1929), it was welcomed for its elegant treatment of groups of linear transformations and for the remarkably clear and explicit exposition throughout the book. Ford's extraordinary talent for writing has been memorialized in the prestigious award that bears his name. The book, in the meantime, has become a recognized classic. Ford's approach is primarily through analytic function theory. The first part of the book covers groups of linear transformations, especially Fuchsian groups, fundamental domains, and functions that are invariant under the groups, including the classical elliptic modular functions and Poincare theta series. The second part of the book covers conformal mappings, uniformization, and connections between automorphic functions and differential equations with regular singular points, such as the hypergeometric equation.

When published in 1929, Ford's book was the first treatise in English on automorphic functions. By this time the field was already fifty years old, as marked from the time of Poincare's early Acta papers that essentially created the subject. The work of Koebe and Poincare on uniformization appeared in 1907. In the seventy years since its first publication, Ford's Automorphic Functions has become a classic. His approach to automorphic functions is primarily through the theory of analytic functions. He begins with a review of the theory of groups of linear transformations, especially Fuchsian groups. He covers the classical elliptic modular functions, as examples of non-elementary automorphic functions and Poincare theta series. Ford includes an extended discussion of conformal mappings from the point of view of functions, which prepares the way for his treatment of uniformization. The final chapter illustrates the connections between automorphic functions and differential equations with regular singular points, such as the hypergeometric equation.
