What is Calculus with Complex Numbers, 1st Edition about?

that they are too verbose, too much geared toward teaching everything to everyone (rather than teaching the basics to everyone), too heavy, and too expensive. This little slim volume is in some sense an optimal solution to this problem. It covers the very basics of complex analysis in such a way that a typical engineering student could read the book cover to cover in a short time and come away with a basic understanding of the field. The reader would then be empowered to read up on more specialized topics (e.g., the use of phasors, nyquist stabilty criterion, inverse laplace transforms) or to apply the theory in an engineering class. For comparison, I usually tell others that my favorite textbook on complex variables is the book by Wunsch. Although I still like Wunsch's book it has gotten fatter and thicker as it has morphed into the current third edition. Its sheer bulk and scope might discourage the student from delving into the book who was not required to by taking a class. Most engineers have to become "self-learners" throughout their career and books like this really help facilitate the process of lifelong learning.
