The hardcover textbook on elliptic functions is currently available for $169.99 and remains in print. It comprehensively covers topics such as theta functions, Jacobi's elliptic functions, elliptic integrals, and their geometrical and physical applications. The book includes sections on Weierstrass's elliptic function, complex variable analysis, and modular transformations, along with several appendices that provide additional resources like Fourier series and computational tables. The condition of the book is good, with no markings apart from a small name stamp on the flyleaf, although the spine color has faded. Notably, 20% of the proceeds from the sale will be donated to the American Physical Society to support education and science advocacy.
