Publisher's Synopsis
""A Course of Modern Analysis"" is a comprehensive textbook written by Edmund Taylor Whittaker, originally published in 1902. The book serves as an introduction to the general theory of infinite series and analytic functions, with a detailed account of the principal transcendental functions. The text is divided into three parts. The first part covers the theory of functions of a real variable, including topics such as differentiation and integration, power series, and the theory of convergence. The second part delves into the theory of functions of a complex variable, including analytic functions, Cauchy's theorem, and Laurent series. The final part covers the principal transcendental functions, including exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions.Throughout the book, Whittaker provides clear explanations of complex mathematical concepts and includes numerous examples and exercises to help readers develop their understanding. The book is aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics, as well as researchers and professionals in the field. Overall, ""A Course of Modern Analysis"" is a classic and influential text in the field of mathematical analysis, and remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in this area of study.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
