This is the best seller in this market. It provides a comprehensive introduction to complex variable theory and its applications to current engineering problems. It is designed to make the fundamentals of the subject more easily accessible to students who have little inclination to wade through the rigors of the axiomatic approach. Modeled after standard calculus books–both in level of exposition and layout–it incorporates physical applications throughout the presentation, so that the mathematical methodology appears less sterile to engineering students.
