“…Like the Dunford-Pettis operators, [2], there is no automatic duality result for the class of almost Dunford-Pettis operators. In fact, the identity operator I d L 1 [0,1] : L 1 [0, 1] → L 1 [0, 1] is almost Dunford-Pettis but its adjoint I d L ∞ [0,1] : L ∞ [0, 1] → L ∞ [0, 1] is not almost Dunford-Pettis.…”
