Since the publication of my lecture notes, Functional Differential Equations in the Applied Mathematical Sciences series, many new developments have occurred. As a consequence, it was decided not to make a few corrections and additions for a second edition of those notes, but to present a more comprehensive theory. The present work attempts to consolidate those elements of the theory which have stabilized and also to include recent directions of research.
