Developing countries are home to about 98% of the world's undernourished people. It is time to understand the dynamics of food security in these countries. Understanding three core issues in depth -- food availability, accessibility and utilization -- will help us to understand the phenomenon of food security and guide the policy process in developing countries. This book will bring together these three core food security issues in one volume, and provide readers with the opportunity to understand this complex and multifaceted problem. The book will help readers to think about the issue of food security in a comprehensive way, and will shed light on policy issues in developing countries in a way that will help policy makers and researchers to understand and further explore these areas."--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aFood security$zDeveloping countries 615 0$aFood security 676 $a338.1/91724 700 $aBashir$b Muhammad Khalid$01664740 701 $aSchilizzi$b Steven G.

It covers topics such as the spherical geometry of the extended complex plane, the hyperbolic geometry of the Poincaré disk, conformal mappings, the Riemann Mapping Theorem and uniformisation of planar domains, characterisations of simply connected domains, the convergence of Riemann maps in terms of Carathéodory convergence of the image domains, normal families and Picard's theorems on value distribution, as well as the fundamentals of univalent function theory. Throughout the text, the synergy between analysis and geometry is emphasised, with proofs chosen for their directness. The textbook is self-contained, requiring only a first undergraduate course in complex analysis. The minimal topology needed is introduced as necessary. While primarily aimed at upper-level undergraduates, the book also serves as a concise reference for graduates working in complex analysis. 410 0$aSpringer Undergraduate Mathematics Series,$x2197-4144 606 $aFunctions of complex variables 606 $aGeometry, Hyperbolic 606 $aTeoria geomètrica de funcions$2thub 606 $aGeometria hiperbòlica$2thub 606 $aFunctions of a Complex Variable 606 $aHyperbolic Geometry 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aFunctions of complex variables. 615 0$aGeometry, Hyperbolic. 615 7$aTeoria geomètrica de funcions 615 7$aGeometria hiperbòlica 615 14$aFunctions of a Complex Variable. 615 24$aHyperbolic Geometry. 676 $a515.9 700 $aCarroll$b Tom$01780012 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910917784003321 996 $aGeometric Function Theory$94303670 997 $aUNINA
