      The author gives an elementary proof of the following theorem due to Bernstein:NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEIf the complex polynomial function \(P\) of degree \(n\) has the absolute value bounded in the unit disc by the positive value \(M\), then its derivative \(P'\) has also the absolute value bounded by \(nM\).NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThe proof is based on the fact that the coefficients \(a_k\) of \(P'\) can be written in the form: NEWLINE\[NEWLINE a_0=\frac{1}{m}\sum_{j=1}^m P(z_j)NEWLINE\]NEWLINE NEWLINE\[NEWLINEa_k=\frac{1}{m}\sum_{j=1}^m \left(z_j^k+\frac{1}{z_j^k}\right)P(z_j) for k>1NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(m>2n\), and \((z_j)_{j=1,2,\ldots , m}\) are the complex \(m\)-roots different from the unity of a complex number on the unit circle.
