Excerpt from Theory of Functions of a Complex Variable

Pembroke College, Cambridge, and now Professor of Mathematics at the Royal Naval College, Greenwich, I am under a deep debt of gratitude: he has used his great knowledge of the subject in the most generous manner, making suggestions and criticisms that have enabled me to correct errors and to improve the book in many respects. Mr H. M. Taylor, m.a., Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, has read the proofs with great care: the kind assist ance that he has given me in this way has proved of substantial service and usefulness in correcting the sheets. I desire to recognise most gratefully my sense of the value of the work which these gentlemen have done.

Reseña del editor

XlL science during the last forty years, not the least remarkable are those in the theory of functions. The contributions that are still being made to it testify to its vitality :all the evidence points to the continuance of its growth. A nd, indeed, this need cause no surprise. Few subjects can boast such varied processes, based upon methods so distinct from one another as are those originated by Cauchy, by Weierstrass, and by Biemann. Each of these methods is sufficient in itself to provide a complete development; combined, they exhibit an unusual wealth of ideas and furnish unsurpassed resources in attacking new problems. It is difficult to keep pace with the rapid growth of the literature which is due to the activity of mathematicians, especially of continental mathematicians: and there is, in con sequence, sufficient reason for considering that some marshalling of the main results is at least desirable and is, perhaps, necessary. Not that there is any dearth of treatises in French and in German :but, for the most part, they either expound the pro cesses based upon some single method or they deal with the discussion of some particular branch of the theory.
