Linear Algebra by Richard C Penney
Linear Algebra: Ideas and Applications, Third Edition has been updated and revised, but its parallel structure (abstract concepts are introduced along with computational) and concepts remain intact. The book covers a number of applications of linear algebra and features a unique treatment of vector spaces, proofs, and computations.
Linear Algebra (third edition) is an excellent undergraduate-level textbook for courses in linear algebraIt is also valuable self-study guide for professionals and researches who would like a basic introduction to linear algebra with applications in science, engineering, and computer science. ( Mathematical Review , Issue 2009e) This volume is ground-breaking in terms of mathematical texts in that it does not teach from a detached perspective, but instead, looks to show students that competent mathematicians bring an intuitive understanding to the subject rather than just a master of applications. ( Electric Review, Nov 2008) This book should make a good text for introductory courses. ( Computing Reviews , September 30, 2008)
