 An excellent supplement for the learning of complex variables July 25, 2008
Charles Ashbacher (Marion, Iowa United States(cashbacher@yahoo.com))
The first graduate level course in mathematics that I took was complex variables. Despite having been very successful as an undergraduate, I felt a bit of trepidation, as the rumor was that graduate school was much, much harder. To help ease the transition, I bought this book as a crutch, which was a wise move. I found problems similar to the assigned homework problems in here and by working through them; I was able to figure out how to do the homework. As a consequence, I was able to do nearly every homework problem, missing only a few points due to minor errors.
That work also led to my achieving very high scores on the exams and getting an A for the course. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who is taking complex variables and is having a bit of difficulty.

I never took a course in complex variables so a professor recommended this book to me. The format is simple and straighforward. Every chapter begins with a terse exposition of the subject matter to be covered. Immediately following is a longer section of "solved problems," where the theory is put into use. The final section consists of problems for the student to solve. The techniques necessary to solve these problems are covered in the earlier "solved problems" section. It is apparently intended as a supplementary textbook, although to me the book seems perfectly adequate by itself for self teaching. No good if you like to learn through reading alone, but for the hands-on type it is very good.
Even in mathematics, Intuition remains the source of truth (to quote Richard Courant) December 30, 2007

This book, although providing solutions and/or answers to all problems, still focuses on a very formal treatment of complex variables. The selection of problems is highly abstract. It remains up to the reader to develop their own sense of direction in the realm of complex numbers. Instead of problems that focus on the final validation of truth in complex numbers, more problems of an applied nature would have been helpful. Even if advanced physics would need to involved.
good reference book... May 23, 2007

more of a handbook with the important theorems and formulas.
the examples and excercise are well conceived.
This book no longer need a review January 11, 2007

This book no longer need a review. It is so popular among the academics and the students for its lucid way of treating complex variables I used this book as my reference for complex variables for the graduate mathematical methods course. This book helped me a lot with lots of examples and interesting exercise problems. It is also very good for students who wants to have a fast glance at the concepts. Overall, I would strongly recommend this book to any student who wants to learn complex variables in the most simple way with all kinds of examles to solve problems and score high grades.
