"What an interesting idea! Dealing with residues from the point of view of complex variable theory! We thought that that was all over, after the advent of the Grothendieck hordes. But here we find some brave souls that reassert the primacy of analysis over abstract nonsense! Congratulations!" - The Bulletin of Mathematical Books
