Can anyone recommend a good textbook for an undergrad who has done real and complex analysis and wants to learn about several complex variables? Thanks!

Ahlfors book is on "An Introduction to the Theory of Analytic Functions of One Complex Variable". Some references for what I'm looking for are on wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Several_complex_variables), but I was wondering if anyone had any experience with such books to recommend. Thanks again

You might want to look at Elementary Theory of Analytic Functions of One or Several Complex Variables (http://www.amazon.com/Elementary-Analytic-Functions-Several-Variables/dp/0486685438/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1285341298&sr=1-1). You can look at the Table of Contents at the Amazon link. The author assumes that you know some general topology. The Hormander and Krantz books in your Wikipedia link are graduate-level. They assume knowledge of subjects such as functional analysis and measure theory, for example.
