<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Well-known book provides a clear, concise review of complex numbers and their geometric representation; linear functions and circular transformations; sets, sequences, and power series; analytic functions and conformal mapping; and elementary functions. 1952 edition.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This well-known book provides a clear and concise review of general function theory via complex variables. Suitable for undergraduate math majors, the treatment explores only those topics that are simplest but are also most important for the development of the theory. Prerequisites include a knowledge of the foundations of real analysis and of the elements of analytic geometry.<br>The text begins with an introduction to the system of complex numbers and their operations. Then the concept of sets of numbers, the limit concept, and closely related matters are extended to complex quantities. Final chapters examine the elementary functions, including rational and linear functions, exponential and trigonometric functions, and several others as well as their inverses, including the logarithm and the cyclometric functions. Numerous examples clarify the essential ideas, and proofs are expressed in a direct manner without sacrifice of completeness or rigor.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>German mathematician Konrad Knopp (1882-1957) taught at the University of Königsberg from 1915-26 and at Tübingen University from 1926 until his retirement in 1950. His other Dover books include <i>Infinite Sequences and Series, Theory and Applications of Infinite Series, Theory of Functions, </i> and <i>Problem Book in the Theory of Functions.</i>
