Description

Book Synopsis
Helps you study the dynamics of iterated holomorphic mappings from a Riemann surface to itself, concentrating on the classical case of rational maps of the Riemann sphere. This title introduces some key ideas in the field, and to form a basis for further study.

Trade Review
"John Milnor's book provides a solid foundation and the kind of bird's eye view that perhaps only a mathematician of his caliber can offer."--William J. Satzer, MAA Reviews
