LINEAR ALGEBRA : A GEOMETRIC APPROACH--------PHI
Description:
This clear,
concise and highly readable text is designed for a first course in
linear algebra and is intended for undergraduate courses in mathematics.
It focusses throughout on geometric explanations to make the student
perceive that linear algebra is nothing but analytic geometry of n
dimensions. From the very start, linear algebra is presented as an
extension of the theory of simultaneous linear equations and their
geometric interpretation is shown to be a recurring theme of the
subject. The integration of abstract algebraic concepts with the
underlying geometric notions is one of the most distinguishing features
of this book — designed to help students in the pursuit of multivariable
calculus and differential geometry in subsequent courses. Explanations
and concepts are logically presented in a conversational tone and
well-constructed writing style so that students at a variety of levels
can understand the material and acquire a solid foundation in the basic
skills of linear algebra.
Key Features
Entices students
to geometric way of thinking about linear algebra.Includes about 100
solved examples for consolidation of the important concepts
introduced.Gives about 400 exercises of various levels of difficulty to
prepare students for original thinking.
This book is recommended in Dhakuakhana College, Dibrugarh, Assam and Dibrugarh University.
