About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
"It embodies a beautiful, concise and precise treatment of the subject, with succint numerical and algebra worked examples at the right points... an excellent textbook which is also eminently suitable for self-study..." Zentralblatt MATH
"This is the second edition of a text for first-year students which covers the main themes of linear algebra in a succinct and readable way. … The book is well-written, with a very high standard of proof-reading, and there are full answers to all the exercises … . It should be welcomed as an excellent introductory textbook which could be used either for self-study and to complement a course of lectures." (Gerry Leversha, The Mathematical Gazette, Vol. 87 (509), 2003)
