About this title

Synopsis

This text is designed for the sophomore level, first linear algebra course offered at both 2 and 4-year schools. Students taking this course are preparing for majors in math, computer science, physics, quantitative analysis, and engineering. Linear Algebra serves as a bridge between the intuitive/computational treatment usually found in freshman calculus and the more formal atmosphere of upper division courses. Most students enter linear algebra unaccustomed to working with abstracts concepts and inexperienced in communicating their thoughts in a clear and precise manner, yet their success in subsequent courses depends to a large extent on mastery of these skills. The challenge for them is to develop their mathematical sophistication while exploring the landscape of linear algebra.
