Product Description
Revised and updated, the new Fifth Edition of Complex Analysis for Mathematics and Engineering presents a comprehensive, student-friendly introduction to Complex Analysis. It's clear, concise writing style and numerous applications make the foundations of the subject matter easily accessible for students and proofs are presented at an elementary level that is understandable by students with a sophomore calculus background. Believing that mathematicians, engineers, and scientists should be exposed to a careful presentation of mathematics, attention to topics such as ensuring required assumptions are met before the use of a theorem or algebraic operations are applied. A new chapter on Z-Transforms and Applications provides students with a current look at Digital Filter Design and Signal Processing.

 EXCELLENT BOOK ON COMPLEX ANALYSIS March 24, 2006

This is the finest book I have seen in complex analysis. The book that my class was using sucked so bad, I could not get anything from it. It was written in such an advanced manner, as if the student is studying his Phd in math. I thought I'm going to flunk the class, until i purchased this book! This book turned out to be a lifesaver for me. The author does a brilliant job in explaining complex analysis. Anyone who has never ever studied complex analysis and just has a background in basic calculus, will master this field simply by studying this book. Well done job!
Very well written February 19, 2004

This is a very well written book on the subject of complex analysis. The text explains the concepts in enough detail that the reader has enough of a grasp to work the problems at the end of the section. The problems are challenging but not impossible. Overall this is an excellent book.
An understandable presentation of complex analysis. December 16, 2006

This book is useful for learning both the theorems and applications of complex functions. It is better organized and more up to date than other books I found in the library. The proofs and examples are complete and easy to understand and there are many well composed figures which help illustrate the concepts. I learned a lot about complex sequences and series and enjoyed the many practical examples like conformal mappings. The computer supplements for Maple and Mathematica look interesting. I can see how complex analysis is used in the real world.
Great Book August 27, 2005

This book does a good job of introducing the student to the theory of complex analysis without overwhelming them with proofs. Alot of the excerises are calculator based and the examples are very detailed.

This book is a great way to ease into some more advanced topics in mathematics. For instance, within the first chapter you start to study topology of the complex field (mappings of sets of points, bounded sets, domains, etc). Of course none of this can be done until you establish the complex number system in terms of R which we are familiar with, and defining the arithmetic options and such. The construction of the complex field in terms of R and continually building off this idea the entire book was very fun and intuitive. It is a great help to read the semester before you take a more rigorous course in analysis, because it will give you a peak at its subtleties without beating you over the head with them.
