In this work, we prove the criterion of Banach-Grunblum and the principle of
selection of Bessaga-Pe\l{}czy\'nski for normed spaces. As applications of
these results, we show the Principle of Selection of Bessaga-Pe\l{}czy\'nski
for normed spaces and the Spectral Theorem for compact self-adjoint operators
on inner product spaces.Comment: 15 pages. Improvement of the paper, including a Spectral Theorem in
this contex
