Visual Complex Analysis Here

: Needham argues that modern mathematics education often treats math this way—as a series of symbols divorced from the sensory world. This book is his attempt to let students finally "hear" the music of complex analysis through geometry. The 25th Anniversary Edition

In his preface, Needham uses a parable to explain the book's existence: Visual Complex Analysis
