| Description: |
From the algebraic properties of a complete number field to the Cauchy integral formula to conformal mapping, this text explores various facets of complex variables, with emphasis on using theory in practice. It presents complex analysis as a natural continuation of calculus, and integrates MATLAB[registered] exercises and examples throughout. |
| Synopsis: |
From the algebraic properties of a complete number field, to the analytic properties imposed by the Cauchy integral formula, to the geometric qualities originating from conformality, "Complex Variables: A Physical Approach with Applications and MATLAB" explores all facets of this subject, with particular emphasis on using theory in practice. The first five chapters encompass the core material of the book. These chapters cover fundamental concepts, holomorphic and harmonic functions, Cauchy theory and its applications, and isolated singularities. Subsequent chapters discuss the argument principle, geometric theory, and conformal mapping, followed by a more advanced discussion of harmonic functions.The author also presents a detailed glimpse of how complex variables are used in the real world, with chapters on Fourier and Laplace transforms as well as partial differential equations and boundary value problems. The final chapter explores computer tools, including Mathematica[registered], Maple , and MATLAB[registered], that can be employed to study complex variables. Each chapter contains physical applications drawing from the areas of physics and engineering.Offering new directions for further learning, this text provides modern students with a powerful toolkit for future work in the mathematical sciences. |

Scarpetta
Kay Scarpetta takes up an assignment in New York City, where the NYPD has asked her to examine an injured patient in a psychiatric ward. The handcuffed and chained patient, Oscar Bane, has specifically asked for her. The story he has to tell turns out to be one of the most bizarre she has ever heard. Is his paranoid tale true? The only thing Scarpetta knows for certain is that a woman has been tortured and murdered, and that more violent deaths will follow.

Just What I Always Wanted
What do Mount Kilimanjaro, a hundred-million-dollar marble mansion, a pair of handcuffs, a jar of walnut jam, the bleeding heart of a dead elk, an incontinent donkey, two Scottish terriers called Negus and Stasi, a fur-lined jockstrap, and the fossilized bowel movement of a turtle have in common? They have all been offered as birthday presents to some rather famous people. This book presents a curiously compelling collection of celebrity birthday gifts from the 16th century to the present day.

Fern
Fern Britton has been widely loved as the presenter of "Ready Steady Cook", and, co-presenter of "This Morning with Philip Schofield". Her warmth and humour, empathy and compassion, have made her feel like a best friend to millions, but no one knows the woman behind the sparkling smile. This title presents her story.
