Publisher's Synopsis
This essentially self-contained exposition presents the first treatment in English of a subject rapidly growing in its interest and importance to mathematicians. The volume derives from lectures delivered by the author at Harvard University. Dr Ahlfors has contributed much to the development of conformal mapping, Riemann surfaces, and other branches of theory of functions of a complex variable and is a renowned mathematician.;This book should be of interest to graduate students on advanced courses in complex analysis.
