Great for self study

Nice little book. Concise and clear. In the typical English style, many of the proofs are left to the reader. Lighhill will assume what he finds obvious is also obvious to the reader. This was not always the case for me. He does this alot in the proving theorems so have a pencil ready. It is alot fun to work through the proofs becuase he gives rough sketches and leaves you to fill in the details. He manages this without loss of clarity or rigor. It is good pedagogy for anyone familiar with basic analysis of real variables and some knowledge of complex variables.
