Abstract
These notes constitute the text of a sequence of lectures given at the University of New England, a brief synopsis of which was presented at the Conference on Analysis in Linear Spaces. There is nothing new here in terms of mathematical knowledge; our only hope is that this theory be new to the audience. Readers who like what they sample here will love Professor Gilles Pisier's forthcoming monograph on "Factorization of Operators between Banach Spaces", the present notes are subsummed by the first section of Pisier.
