Lectures on Riemann Surfaces

This book grew out of lectures on Riemann surfaces given by Otto Forster at the universities of Munich, Regensburg, and Münster. It provides a concise modern introduction to this rewarding subject, as well as presenting methods used in the study of complex manifolds in the special case of complex dimension one. From the “This book deserves very serious consideration as a text for anyone contemplating giving a course on Riemann surfaces.”―-MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS
