This readable introduction to linear algebra, begins at an elementary level. It will be useful both for students of pure mathematics who may wish to pursue a more advanced study of the subject and for those who need to use linear algebra and its applications in other fields.
This book is a readable introduction to linear algebra, starting at an elementary level. It is intended to be useful both for students of pure mathematics who may subsequently pursue more advanced study in this area and for students who require linear algebra and its applications in other subjects. Throughout, stress is placed on applications of the subject in preference to more theoretical aspects. The book has worked examples on every left-hand page concurrently with the text on the right-hand page, which allows the reader to follow the text uninterrupted. The book is intended to be worked through and learned from, and contains numerous exercises with solutions.
