自1902年首次出版以来,这部经典著作一直是数千名数学家、科学家和工程师的独特资源。它从未绝版,其持续的价值在于它对数学物理特殊函数的全面详尽论述以及对产生这些函数的微分方程的分析。这本书也具有历史价值,因为它是第一本用英语介绍当时现代复分析方法的书籍。第五版保留了原版的风格和内容,但在适当的地方补充了更新的结果和参考文献。所有公式都经过了核对,并且做了许多修正。进行了一次完整的文献检索,以现代形式呈现参考文献,便于使用。S. J. 帕特森教授撰写的新前言概述了本书的创作背景,并解释了它经久不衰的原因。对于任何数学家的书架来说,这都是一个受欢迎的补充,它将让新一代人体验到这本书所包含的美妙之处。
This classic work has been a unique resource for thousands of mathematicians, scientists and engineers since its first appearance in 1902. Never out of print, its continuing value lies in its thorough and exhaustive treatment of special functions of mathematical physics and the analysis of differential equations from which they emerge. The book also is of historical value as it was the first book in English to introduce the then modern methods of complex analysis. This fifth edition preserves the style and content of the original, but it has been supplemented with more recent results and references where appropriate. All the formulas have been checked and many corrections made. A complete bibliographical search has been conducted to present the references in modern form for ease of use. A new foreword by Professor S. J. Patterson sketches the circumstances of the book’s genesis and explains the reasons for its longevity. A welcome addition to any mathematician’s bookshelf, this will allow a whole new generation to experience the beauty contained in this text.
