From the reviews of the second edition: "The new methods of complex
manifold theory are very useful tools for investigations in algebraic
geometry, complex function theory, differential operators and so on. The
differential geometrical methods of this theory were developed
essentially under the influence of Professor S.-S. Chern's works. The
present book is a second edition... It can serve as an introduction to,
and a survey of, this theory and is based on the author's lectures held
at the University of California and at a summer seminar of the Canadian
Mathematical Congress....
The text is illustrated by many examples... The book is warmly
recommended to everyone interested in complex differential geometry."
