We study the Borel map, which maps infinitely differentiable functions on an interval to the jets of their Taylor coefficients at a given point in the interval. Our main results include a complete description of the image of the Borel map for Beurling classes of smooth functions and a moment-type summation method which allows one to recover a function from its Taylor jet. A surprising feature of this description is an unexpected threshold at the logarithmic class. Another interesting finding is a "duality" between non-quasianalytic and quasianalytic classes, which reduces the description of the image of the Borel map for non-quasianalytic classes to the one for the corresponding quasianalytic classes, and complements classical results of Carleson and Ehrenpreis.
