Ebook: Linear Algebra: Gateway to Mathematics

Since many students feel uncomfortable at first or unfamiliar with the theoretical nature of many topics in linear algebra, numerous discussions of the logical structure of proofs, the need to translate terminology into notations, and suggestions about efficient ways to discover a proof are discussed. "Crossroads" boxes showing students how topics fit together, quick examples, exercises with selected answers, references, chapter summaries, and chapter review exercises are included. Printed on acidic paper.
