This book is a comprehensive introduction to linear algebra which presupposes no
knowledge on the part of the reader beyond the calculus. It gives a thorough
treatment of all the basic concepts, such as vector space, linear transformation
and inner product. The book proceeds at a gentle pace, yet provides full proofs.
The concept of a quotient space is introduced and is related to solutions of
linear system of equations. Also a simplified treatment of Jordan normal form is
given.

Numerous applications of linear algebra are described: these include systems of
linear recurrence relations, systems of linear differential equations, Markov
processes and the Method of Least Squares. In addition, an entirely new chapter
on linear programming introduces the reader to the Simplex Algorithm and
stresses understanding the theory on which the algorithm is based. The book is
addressed to students who wish to learn linear algebra, as well as to
professionals who need to use the methods of the subject in their own fields.
