A Course of Modern Analysis by G Watson

A Course of Modern Analysis by G Watson

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.

Edmund Taylor Whittaker (1873-1956) studied mathematics at Trinity College, Cambridge. He became Professor of Mathematics at the University of Edinburgh in 1911 and taught there for the rest of his career, specializing in applied mathematics, mathematical physics, and special functions.
George Neale Watson (1886-1965) also studied at Trinity College, Cambridge. From 1914 to 1918 he was a lecturer at University College, London, and in 1918 became Professor of Mathematics at the University of Birmingham.
