具体描述
New edition extensively revised and updated
Covers new topics such as product spaces, quotient spaces, and dual spaces
Features new visually appealing format for both print and electronic versions
Includes almost three times the number of exercises as the previous edition
This best-selling textbook for a second course in linear algebra is aimed at undergrad math majors and graduate students. The novel approach taken here banishes determinants to the end of the book. The text focuses on the central goal of linear algebra: understanding the structure of linear operators on finite-dimensional vector spaces. The author has taken unusual care to motivate concepts and to simplify proofs. A variety of interesting exercises in each chapter helps students understand and manipulate the objects of linear algebra.
The third edition contains major improvements and revisions throughout the book. More than 300 new exercises have been added since the previous edition. Many new examples have been added to illustrate the key ideas of linear algebra. New topics covered in the book include product spaces, quotient spaces, and dual spaces. Beautiful new formatting creates pages with an unusually pleasant appearance in both print and electronic versions.
No prerequisites are assumed other than the usual demand for suitable mathematical maturity. Thus the text starts by discussing vector spaces, linear independence, span, basis, and dimension. The book then deals with linear maps, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors. Inner-product spaces are introduced, leading to the finite-dimensional spectral theorem and its consequences. Generalized eigenvectors are then used to provide insight into the structure of a linear operator.
From reviews of previous editions:
“… a didactic masterpiece”
—Zentralblatt MATH
“… a tour de force in the service of simplicity and clarity … The most original linear algebra book to appear in years, it certainly belongs in every undergraduate library.”
—CHOICE
The determinant-free proofs are elegant and intuitive.
—American Mathematical Monthly
“Clarity through examples is emphasized … the text is ideal for class exercises … I congratulate the author and the publisher for a well-produced textbook on linear algebra.”
—Mathematical Reviews
用户评价
##其实线性代数也不能这样学……正文全是引理、定理和推论的堆砌，课后习题量较大且比较刁钻，并不是很利于巩固所学的内容。学下来的体会就是：虽然刷了几百道习题，但两个月一过正文的内容就已经忘得差不多了。
评分##思路可取，但是公式推导太多了，不易于构建直观印象，线性代数本身和几何联系很多，公式定理和几何意义一块走才是好的。

评分##Mediocre textbook.
评分##开始刷习题
评分这是一本我愿意用“优美”去形容的数学书，纯粹的数学思维，完全不考虑应用。作者好心地公布了习题答案，http://linearalgebras.com/
评分##第三版加入了对偶空间的内容和一些习题，话说另外一本Done wrong也很好～
评分##网络上有很多人把这本书给初学者推荐，我不知道你们究竟读没读过，尤其资质差的初学者，应该连第一章里的很多例子给想不明白。
评分##最经典undergraduate advanced linear algebra的教材之一，非常proof-based，不推荐给非数学系的和入门的（calculation-based）
