Linear Algebra

Graduate Texts in Mathematics #23

by Werner H. Greub

This textbook gives a detailed and comprehensive presentation of the linear algebra based on axiomatic treatment of linear spaces. The author maintains a good balance between modern algebraic interests and traditional linear algebra. Several chapters have been substantially rewritten for clarity of exposition, although their basic content is unchanged. A considerable number of exer- cises covering new material has also been added.

Painfully dreary. The book, while excellent in regards to providing an exhaustive compendium of all of linear algebra, completely fails to illustrate ideas on a conceptual level and to provide any possible applications to other fields of mathematics, hence leaving the reader feeling as if they had just absorbed a mountain of irrelevant and unrelated theorems.
