Copson writes in the Preface.
After he retired in 1969, Copson continued living in St Andrews.
Copson, who was a friend and collaborator, suggested that he obtain a doctorate.
The eldest of their two daughters was Beatrice Mary Whittaker,who later married Copson.
By the 1960's Copson was hard of hearing and wore a hearing aid.
He held the Regius Chair until he retired in 1950 when he was succeeded as Regius Professor of Mathematics by Copson.
Coulson thanks E T Copson in the Preface of the book for his help in preparing the text.
A new Mathematical Institute was built on the North Haugh as part of the new science complex while Copson held the Regius Chair.
Copson was a good teacher, whether behind the rostrum with his general class or in tutorials or seminars with his honours or research students.
Every member of the small staff might be called upon to lecture in any branch of mathematics, and Copson with his wide interests in mathematics was admirably suited to such an environment.
Copson studied classical analysis, asymptotic expansions, differential and integral equations, and applications to problems in theoretical physics.
Educated at King Henry VIII School in Coventry,where he held an Entrance Scholarship, Copson then matriculated at St John's College, Oxford, in 1919 where he was greatly influenced by Love and Hardy.
Copson was generous in the help and advice he gave to new members of staff yet they were free to develop their interests both in teaching and research.
Despite his mathematical interests, since Copson held the Regius Chair of Mathematics, Rutherford was appointed to a new chair of applied mathematics.
Copson was honoured by election to the Royal Society of Edinburgh in 1924 and was awarded the Keith Prize of the Society in 1941 for an outstanding series of papers published in the Proceedings.
Asymptotic expansions(1965) was written because Copson was pressed to write a more major work on that subject to expand on a shorter work written in 1943 at the request of the Admiralty.
Copson spent 1934 at the Royal Naval College in Greenwich, then returned to the University of St Andrews but this time to the chair of mathematics at Queen's College, Dundee(Queen's College was at that time part of the University of St Andrews and only became the University of Dundee in the 1960's).
One of his sisters, Beatrice Mary Whittaker,married Edward Copson while one of his brothers, Eddy Whittaker, became Vice-President of the Prudential Insurance Company in Newark, New Jersey, United States.
Whittaker interviewed Copson on the platform of Windemere station and offered him a lectureship in mathematics at the University of Edinburgh while on the train. How times have changed!
This was the text recommended to me by Copson who taught me complex analysis and it is indeed a tribute to Ahlfors that Copson, who had himself written a superb book on complex analysis, should recommend Ahlfors' book rather than his own.
