Matrix Analysis and Applied Linear Algebra
updated. it comes with solution manual.
(Reviews: **broken link removed**)
Book Description
Matrix Analysis and Applied Linear Algebra is an honest math text that circumvents the traditional definition-theorem-proof format that has bored students in the past. Meyer uses a fresh approach to introduce a variety of problems and examples ranging from the elementary to the challenging and from simple applications to discovery problems. The focus on applications is a big difference between this book and others. Meyer's book is more rigorous and goes into more depth than some. He includes some of the more contemporary topics of applied linear algebra which are not normally found in undergraduate textbooks. Modern concepts and notation are used to introduce the various aspects of linear equations, leading readers easily to numerical computations and applications. The theoretical developments are always accompanied with examples, which are worked out in detail. Each section ends with a large number of carefully chosen exercises from which the students can gain further insight.
"This book is very interesting to read, it is very clear, well explained and presented. The subjects covered in this book are mostly for undergraduate to begining graduate and can serve as a bridge to numerical linear algebra. The author makes a great emphasis on explanation and he does a great job. For those who have ever read a book by SIAM know the style of writing and presentation. The book is applied as it mean it is not theoritical.The book contains a lot of exercise of different difficulty and it is accompanied with a solution manual to all of the exercises and a CD-ROM with a lot of stuff in it that make the book more interesting. The author maintain a web site where you can find many more information concernig the book. I recommend this book to anyone who want to introduce himself into linear algebra and matrix analysis."
