title: Complex Analysis: The Geometric Viewpoint (Carus Mathematical Monographs)
author:  Steven G. Krantz 
description: 'A first-rate book, which can be used either as a text or a reference.' Choice<br /><br />'In five very nicely written chapters this book gives an introduction to the approach to function theory via Riemannian geometry. Very little function-theoretic background is needed and no knowledge whatsoever of differential geometry is assumed.' Mathematical Reviews
