How Do I Apply the Fourier Transform to a Laplacian Equation?

Hello,

Thanks at first. If anyone can understand, then I would like to know how do I get to equation 4.15. Its a laplacian equation in which I want to apply the Fourier transform.

Thanks again.

It seems that they are evaluating the integral directly using the calculus of residues from complex analysis.

Thank you for your reply. Could you kindly tell me where to look for to get to this solution.
Thanks again.
