Imagine a typical living room in a large house. It has a tiger rug on the floor, a statue of a little girl on the window sill, and an armchair. And they talk. The tiger cannot see anything except the base-board because he is lying on the floor, and the chair can only look at the opposite wall. And then the statue comes to life. The conversation that ensues is highly individual.

This self-contained book lays the foundations for a systematic understanding of potential theoretic and uniformization problems on fractal Sierpiński carpets, and proposes a theory based on the latest developments in the field of analysis on metric spaces. The first part focuses on the development of an innovative theory of harmonic functions that is suitable for Sierpiński carpets but differs from the classical approach of potential theory in metric spaces. The second part describes how this theory is utilized to prove a uniformization result for Sierpiński carpets. This book is intended for researchers in the fields of potential theory, quasiconformal geometry, geometric group theory, complex dynamics, geometric function theory and PDEs.
"One of the most useful books to cover the whole of the field...Mr. Ford is to be congratulated on having produced a work that should stand the test of time." Carpet Review Weekly
"The book is like a dream you want to last forever" (Roberta Silman, The New York Times Book Review), now with a gorgeous new cover by the famed designer Peter Mendelsund A masterwork of W. G. Sebald, now with a gorgeous new cover by the famed designer Peter Mendelsund The Rings of Saturn—with its curious archive of photographs—records a walking tour of the eastern coast of England. A few of the things which cross the path and mind of its narrator (who both is and is not Sebald) are lonely eccentrics, Sir Thomas Browne’s skull, a matchstick model of the Temple of Jerusalem, recession-hit seaside towns, wooded hills, Joseph Conrad, Rembrandt’s "Anatomy Lesson," the natural history of the herring, the massive bombings of WWII, the dowager Empress Tzu Hsi, and the silk industry in Norwich. W.G. Sebald’s The Emigrants (New Directions, 1996) was hailed by Susan Sontag as an "astonishing masterpiece perfect while being unlike any book one has ever read." It was "one of the great books of the last few years," noted Michael Ondaatje, who now acclaims The Rings of Saturn "an even more inventive work than its predecessor, The Emigrants."
