A beautiful exposition of the geometry behind complex analysis and topology! Assuming you have already been exposed to complex calculus, the great connections made in this text with modern geometry, topology and algebra will solidify your work with complex numbers as a geometrical language.

This is an engaging and clear introduction to complex analysis with a focus on visual display and easily followed consideration of translations, rotations, scaling and similar transformations of shape, orientation, and location. This is not an introductory text, so the author recommends reading first or having on hand Complex Analysis. I think this itself goes nicely with Spherical Geometry and Its Applications.
