A course of modern analysis : an introduction to the general theory of infinite processes and of analytic functions with an account of the principal transcendental functions / E.T. Whittaker and G.N. Watson ; fifth edition edited and prepared for publication by Victor H. Moll.
Whittaker, E. T. (Edmund Taylor), 1873-1956| Call Number | 511.8 |
| Author | Whittaker, E. T. 1873-1956, author. |
| Title | A course of modern analysis : an introduction to the general theory of infinite processes and of analytic functions with an account of the principal transcendental functions / E.T. Whittaker and G.N. Watson ; fifth edition edited and prepared for publication by Victor H. Moll. |
| Edition | Fifth edition. |
| Physical Description | 1 online resource (liii, 668 pages) : digital, PDF file(s). |
| Notes | Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 06 Aug 2021). |
| Summary | This classic work has been a unique resource for thousands of mathematicians, scientists and engineers since its first appearance in 1902. Never out of print, its continuing value lies in its thorough and exhaustive treatment of special functions of mathematical physics and the analysis of differential equations from which they emerge. The book also is of historical value as it was the first book in English to introduce the then modern methods of complex analysis. This fifth edition preserves the style and content of the original, but it has been supplemented with more recent results and references where appropriate. All the formulas have been checked and many corrections made. A complete bibliographical search has been conducted to present the references in modern form for ease of use. A new foreword by Professor S.J. Patterson sketches the circumstances of the book's genesis and explains the reasons for its longevity. A welcome addition to any mathematician's bookshelf, this will allow a whole new generation to experience the beauty contained in this text. |
