Books like Linear algebra by Eric Carlen

James Stewart's CALCULUS texts are renowned for their precision, clarity, and effectiveness in teaching calculus to students worldwide.

An accessible textbook that explains linear algebra concepts and demonstrates their application across engineering, computer science, physics, biology, and economics.

"Any student studying linear algebra will welcome this textbook, which provides a thorough, yet concise, treatment of key topics in university linear algebra courses. Blending practice and theory, the book enables students to practice and master the standard methods as well as understand how they actually work. At every stage the authors take care to ensure that the discussion is no more complicated or abstract than it needs to be, and focuses only on the fundamental topics. Hundreds of examples and exercises, including solutions, give students plenty of hands-on practice End-of-chapter sections summarise material to help students consolidate their learning Ideal as a course text and for self-study Instructors can use the many examples and exercises to supplement their own assignments Both authors have extensive experience of undergraduate teaching and of preparation of distance learning materials"--

This book is a short text in linear algebra, intended for a one-term course. In the first chapter, Lang discusses the relation between the geometry and the algebra underlying the subject, and gives concrete examples of the notions which appear later in the book. He then starts with a discussion of linear equations, matrices and Gaussian elimination, and proceeds to discuss vector spaces, linear maps, scalar products, determinants, and eigenvalues. The book contains a large number of exercises, some of the routine computational type, and others are conceptual.

A classic compilation of challenging analysis problems and theorems drawn from leading mathematicians between 1850 and 1925.
