Banach Function Algebras, Arens Regularity, and BSE Norms

This book is about semisimple Banach algebras with a focus on those that are commutative. Some of the questions dealt with in the book are: Whether the introduced Banach algebras are BSE-algebras, whether they have BSE norms, whether they have the separating ball property or some variant of it, and whether they are Arens regular.
