Taking a computational, algebraic, and geometric approach to linear algebra, A Modern Introduction to Linear Algebra provides an appealing foundation for a one-semester undergraduate course. This matrix-oriented text focuses on useful concepts at the heart of linear algebra, including finite-dimensional real vector spaces, eigenvalues, quadratic forms, and more. The author presents theoretical and applied examples as well as discussions of numerical aspects. In the appendices, he reviews set theory, sigma notation, mathematical induction, and complex numbers. A solutions manual is...
