The volume is an enlarged edition of a classic textbook on complex analysis. It bridges the gap between the classical material of the first edition and recent advances in half-plane Loewner theory, thus providing the complex analysis backbone of Loewner theory. The new materials found in this edition give a concise and accessible treatment of Loewner theory. Some of them have been described in research papers only or appear here for the first time. Each chapter finishes with exercises.
