Synopsis

More and more, today's science and engineering majors are asked to make more extensive and sophisticated use of linear algebra earlier in their studies, whether for exploring new topics (digital signal processing) or new approaches to traditional subjects (theory of ordinary differential equations).  This new first-year text is designed to prepare students for the growing prominence of linear algebra at earlier junctures across the science and engineering curriculum.  It presents the subject with no assumptions of prior exposure to linear algebra, with an understanding of how computational technology has changed the course, and with an emphasis on helping students developing their mathematical reasoning skills.
