Linear Algebra: An Introduction to the Theory and Use of Vectors and Matrices

From the PublisherThis text covers the fundamental role of linear algebra within both pure and applied mathematics as well as client disciplines such as engineering, the physical sciences, and economics. Linear Algebra examines the interrelationships between theory, computation, and applications. The organization reflects the recent recommendations from the NSF-sponsored Study Group in Linear Algebra and the Mathematical Association of America to give more attention to matrix related topics. The text integrates contemporary uses of linear algebra with the traditional theory of vector spaces and linear transformations, providing math majors with a broader view of linear algebra.
