Editorial Reviews:
Product Description This outstanding text starts off using vectors and the geometric approach, featuring a computational emphasis. The authors provide students with easy-to-read explanations, examples, proofs, and procedures. Elementary Linear Algebra can be used in both a matrix-oriented course, or a more traditionally structured course.

Customer Reviews:
excellent October 4, 2006 LIN MAN KAI (Aus) Good for beginners of linear algebra like myself. Good book. good logical sequence. would be better if proofs are shown more rigourously. Very easy to understand.
Good Book with the right Teacher November 28, 2005 Andrew J. Flett (Roanoke VA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is quite good as an introduction to linear algebra with a nice mix of proofs and computational exercise. It has two main fault both of which can be corrected by a good teacher. The first is the horrible graphics (everything is in shades of gray and blue) that make it very hard to use them to supplement the text. The second is that in some sections they use non-standard notation for certain items and without a teacher to explain this you will not be able to understand what they are trying to say.
