Abstract This chapter gives an introduction to the book. It surveys multivariable hypergeometric series and integrals, with comparison of the classical, basic and elliptic case, and multivariable (bi)orthogonal polynomials and functions, where root system generalizations of classical orthogonal polynomials get special emphasis. The chapter also provides a global description of the other chapters.
