Elementary Linear Algebra

Gerber makes linear algebra immediately accessible through problem solving, rather than abstractly proving theorems. Exercises range from easy mechanical questions to difficult theoretical ones. Supplementary exercises - some based on text material, others introducing and developing new concepts such as skew-symmetric matrices - are included. A computer graphics section emphasizes use of linear algebra in the modern world. This book should be of interest to students taking physical science, computer science, mathematics and engineering courses with a linear algebra element.
