Book description

The MAA is pleased to re-issue the early Carus Mathematical Monographs in ebook and print-on-demand formats. Readers with an interest in the history of the undergraduate curriculum or the history of a particular field will be rewarded by study of these very clear and approachable little volumes. The theory of functions of a complex variable has been developed by the efforts of thousands of workers through the last hundred years. To give even the briefest account of the present state of that theory in all its branches would be impossible within the limits of this book. What is attempted here is a presentation of fundamental principles with sufficient details of proof and discussion to avoid the style of a mere summary or synopsis. In various places there are indications of directions in which special portions of the subject branch off from the main stem. The reader is assumed to have an acquaintance with elementary differential and integral calculus. Without such knowledge one may, however, obtain some idea of the scope and purposes of the theory of functions from this monograph. Those should profit most who are familiar with more than the elements of the calculus.
