Excellent Book

I have used this book back in my college days. I am amazed to see such a low rating on this book. This is one of the best books on complex analysis. Mind you this is a Graduate Text in Mathematics. So it is intended to cover lot of ground using clear logical path. I agree to some extent that this book does not have lot of examples but a GTM is supposed to be like that. The way I used/read this book is to supplement it with other books on the topic. The proofs of theorems in this book are complete without any errors. If you are a graduate student and want to learn complex analysis, this is the best book available out there.

A good read

We're using this book for my graduate level complex analysis course, and over all, I'm pleased with it. Aside from some goofy notation (i.e., an empty box to represent the empty set?), it's pretty well written. The pace of the text isn't too fast or too slow, and there are plenty of exercises of a varying degree of difficulty to help you learn the material. Another nice feature is the price; one can find it for less than $50, so it'll make a nice reference book even if it wasn't assigned for a class.

Very Good quality and speed

I got this book very quickly and it's really very good. Thanks

a good book

An ideal text for a first-year graduate students in mathematics studying Compex Analysis. And this depend how the professor present the material. The exposition is complete and very clear, including a lot of optional material for the curious. which could be very useful to those preparing for a qualifying exam in analysis at the PhD level. Overall, recommend text.

A good book for a beginning graduate student.

I used this book in graduate school to help prepare for one of my Ph.D. qualifying exams. The text discusses beginning theory for functions of one complex variable. There are many examples, and the proofs are clearly stated.
