[see attached] This excellent introductory text covers a number of important areas in complex analysis and geometry. Written by experts in their respective fields, each of the five chapters unfolds from the basics to the more complex. Unlike other more laborious introductory texts, the exposition here is rapid-paced and efficient, without compromising proofs and examples that enable the reader to grasp the essentials. Topics covered include: function spaces on complex semigroups graded Lie algebras, related geometric structures, and pseudo- Hermitian symmetric spaces function spaces on bounded symmetric
