Abstract
THE well-known German book, “Funktionen-theorie und ihre Anwendung in der Technik”, published in 1931, is now available in an English translation. The first section, written by R. Rothe of Berlin, is devoted to a mathematical discussion of the functions required in the solution of many advanced engineering problems. It deals with the complex variable, line integrals and their relationship to potential theory, complex integra tion, power series and Laurent's series, residue theorems and singularities.
Theory of Functions: as Applied to Engineering Problems.
Edited By R. Rothe F. Ollendorff K. Pohlhausen. Authorized translation by Alfred Herzenberg. Pp. x + 189. (Cambridge, Mass.: Technology Press; Mass. Institute of Technology, 1933.) 3.50 dollars.
