A Basic Course in Complex Variables

<p>The calculus of real numbers can be extended to complex numbers where the definitions and techniques one learns in calculus carry over to complex variables.<p>David C. Kay who has written several books geared for college students explains this development in his new book. A short review of basic concepts from real variable calculus appears with each new topic. Differentiation and integration in complex variables is clearly explained with numerical examples.<p>Other topics include infinite series of complex variables uniform convergence the Taylor and Laurent series and methods for evaluating difficult integrals.<p>Charts tables and drawings throughout the book make even tough concepts easy to understand and problems have been carefully crafted to cover the main concepts while maintaining your interest.<p>Whether you're an educator seeking to provide an additional resource for your students or a student seeking a self-help guide to understand complex variables the developmental in this book is a refreshing treatment that can be a stand-alone tutorial or companion guide to another textbook.</p>
