Kurt Mahler has introduced many profound ideas and methods into the theory of transcendental numbers. His work in this area includes detailed study of the algebraic approximations of numbers such as e, v and log 2, a new classification of real and complex numbers according to their approximation properties, and the initiation and development of p-adic transcendence theory. The particular method which I shall discuss here can be traced back to Mahler's earliest papers written in GOttingen in the 1920's. These papers were unaccountably overlooked for many years, but they have received considerable attention in recent times because of links with the theory of automata.
