1. **State the problem:** We need to solve the integral $$\int \left(1-\frac{1}{z}\right)^2 \, dz$$.
2. **Expand the integrand:** Use the formula for the square of a binomial: $$(a-b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2$$.
Here, $a=1$ and $b=\frac{1}{z}$, so:
$$\left(1-\frac{1}{z}\right)^2 = 1^2 - 2 \cdot 1 \cdot \frac{1}{z} + \left(\frac{1}{z}\right)^2 = 1 - \frac{2}{z} + \frac{1}{z^2}$$
3. **Rewrite the integral:**
$$\int \left(1 - \frac{2}{z} + \frac{1}{z^2}\right) dz = \int 1 \, dz - 2 \int \frac{1}{z} \, dz + \int \frac{1}{z^2} \, dz$$
4. **Integrate each term separately:**
- $$\int 1 \, dz = z$$
- $$\int \frac{1}{z} \, dz = \ln|z|$$
- $$\int \frac{1}{z^2} \, dz = \int z^{-2} \, dz = \frac{z^{-1}}{-1} = -\frac{1}{z}$$
5. **Combine the results:**
$$z - 2 \ln|z| - \frac{1}{z} + C$$
where $C$ is the constant of integration.
**Final answer:**
$$\int \left(1-\frac{1}{z}\right)^2 \, dz = z - 2 \ln|z| - \frac{1}{z} + C$$
