Numerical Linear Algebra: Twenty-Fifth Anniversary Edition

Since its original appearance in 1997, Numerical Linear Algebra has been a leading textbook in its field, used in universities around the world. It is noted for its 40 lecture-sized short chapters and its clear and inviting style. It is reissued here with a new foreword by James Nagy and a new afterword by Yuji Nakatsukasa about subsequent developments.
