Introduction to Linear Algebra

by Lee W. Johnson, R. Dean Riess, Jimmy T. Arnold

This edition features the exact same content as the traditional text in a convenient, three-hole- punched, loose-leaf version. Books a la Carte also offer a great value--this format costs significantly less than a new textbook. Introduction to Linear Algebra, Sixth Edition, is a foundation text that bridges both practical computation and theoretical principles. This book's flexible table of contents makes it suitable for students majoring in science and engineering as well as students who want an introduction to mathematical abstraction and logical reasoning. To achieve this flexibility, the authors focus on three principle topics: matrix theory and systems of linear equations, elementary vector space concepts, and the eigenvalue problem. This highly adaptable text is appropriate for a one-quarter or one-semester course at the sophomore/junior level, or for a more advanced class at the junior/senior level.
