Because the theory of equations with delay terms occurs in a
variety of contexts, it is important to provide a framework,
whenever possible, to handle as many cases as possible
simultaneously so as to bring out a better insight and
understanding of the subtle differences of the various equations
with delays. Furthermore, such a unified theory would avoid
duplication and expose open questions that are significant for
future research.

It is in this spirit that the authors view the importance of their
monograph, which presents a systematic and unified theory of recent
developments of equations with unbounded delay, describes the
current state of the theory showing the essential unity achieved,
and provides a general structure applicable to a variety of
problems.
