Description
Taking a traditional approach to the subject of Linear Algebra, with some introduction for students to R^n, the Fourth Edition of "Linear Algebra with Applications", newly acquired by McGraw-Hill, continues the tradition of accuracy and excellence associated with W. Keith Nicholson. Unlike the previous edition, however, the Fourth Edition introduces eigenvalues early on, in chapter 3, in a rigorous way using only matrix algebra and determinants. As well, Nicholson has added a new "bridging" chapter from Vector Geometry (Chapter 4) to the notion of an Abstract Vector Space (Chapter 6). In the traditional manner, "Nicholson 4/e" allows students to "hit the wall" with theory, but, with these new features, also provides students with the tools needed to overcome the wall. - from Amzon
