No bullshit guide to linear algebra

Very nice reference book. I also found it useful to refresh my linear algebra knowledge which got a bit rusty

Excellent book helped my daughter get good marks in her exam

A delightful linear algebra book, I really enjoyed learning from it.

Fantastic book. Focus is on intuition.

It's a great book in terms of writing I just wish I could understand it better.

I have not gone through much yet.. so will review later.

This is one of the most useful math education books I have read. It's intro math review is excellent in itself. For me the book has a perfect pace, it is succinct without being overwhelming and clips along and an enjoyable pace. There are plenty of useful exercises. There is also some humour embedded into some of the test questions. The book has helped me beef up my linear algebra study for following Andrew Ng's courses.

I should make clear from the start - and I have spent five weeks full-time with this book! This book *alone* will not give you a good grounding in Linear Algebra. Simply speaking the contents barely scratch the surface and you will require significant read-around to be able to progress - this especially applies to the initial foundation chapter. Why five star then? Well... it actually forms the excellent basis for a syllabus you can follow (along with supplementary) material to genuinely start from absolute scratch to gain quite a good knowledge of Linear Algebra. Couple this with the free OpenStax textbooks for basic Algebra/Trig/Geometry (available free on Amazon as ebooks as well as on their website) , work hard, practice a lot, couple this with some youtube videos and you'll succeed. Five stars as a "mentor" to guide you along the track, but the book alone unless you have some math background isn't sufficient. Likely one of very few books that can provide this sort of guidance from zero maths to eigenvalues....

Bra bok. Värd ett köp. Ganska snackig.

Great book for an intuitive understanding of the subject

I bought this book to get rid of certain weaknesses regarding the subject that have occured since I left university. The book has a fine structure, symbols and functions are well defined when they are introduced. The language used is precise and easy to read, it does not loose itself in too theoretical dimensions before explaining the basics. A quality I miss in almost any book regarding higher mathematics.

L’autore ha voluto fare un compendio generale di algebra lineare partendo dai rudimenti. Poteva essere più diretto e quindi meno dispersivo ma nel complesso va vene

Simply a great book! The contents are very explained with small examples and sometimes with exercises. It covers vectors, trigonometric functions, matrix calculations (algebra), statistics, probabilities. There are also several chapters with applications of the previous topics to real situations. Strongly recommend!
