Linear Algebra (5th Ed.)
Auteurs : Friedberg Stephen, Insel Arnold, Spence Lawrence
For courses in Advanced Linear Algebra.
Illustrates the power of linear algebra through practical applications
This acclaimed theorem-proof text presents a careful treatment of the principal topics of linear algebra. It emphasizes the symbiotic relationship between linear transformations and matrices, but states theorems in the more general infinite-dimensional case where appropriate. Applications to such areas as differential equations, economics, geometry, and physics appear throughout, and can be included at the instructor?s discretion.

Hallmark features of this title
- A rigorous treatment of linear algebra that is flexible and organized for a number of course options:
- Frequently used for a second course that emphasizes abstract vector spaces, but can be used for accelerated students in a first course with a strong theoretical emphasis.
- Applications to such areas as differential equations, economics, geometry and physics appear throughout, and can be included at the instructor's discretion.
- Emphasizes the symbiotic relationship between linear transformations and matrices, but states theorems in the more general infinite-dimensional case where appropriate.
- Numerous accessible exercises that enrich and extend the text material, offering students a chance to test their understanding by working interesting problems at a reasonable level of difficulty.
