I’m offering a vintage 1970 Dover edition of Kenneth S. Miller’s An Introduction to Advanced Complex Calculus, an advanced mathematics text devoted to functions of a complex variable and complex analysis.
Dover published this edition in 1970 as an unabridged republication, with minor corrections, of Miller’s Advanced Complex Calculus, originally published by Harper & Brothers in 1960. This is the older Dover issue with the distinctive red mathematical cover and original $2.50 printed price. ISBN 0-486-62661-X / 9780486626611.
The book runs 240 pages and develops complex-variable theory from topological preliminaries through analytic functions, contour integrals, Cauchy’s integral theorem and formula, sequences and series, residues, conformal mapping, Riemann surfaces and related advanced topics. It includes exercises and 74 figures and was intended for upper-level mathematics students, beginning graduate students and engineering students. Bibliographic records confirm this exact 1970 Dover edition.
This copy comes from the personal library of Gerald B. Sheblé, whose ownership signature is written at the top of the interior Dover mathematics catalog page. Sheblé’s professional work centered on electrical engineering and power systems, making an advanced mathematics volume of this kind a particularly relevant part of his technical library.
The paperback remains solid with clean interior pages. The red covers show expected vintage shelf and handling wear, including rubbing, edge wear and small creases. The original cover artwork and $2.50 price remain clearly visible.
A worthwhile older technical edition for a mathematician, electrical engineer, student or collector interested in complex analysis, complex variables, applied mathematics and vintage Dover mathematics books.
