"The second edition is substantially expanded ... A huge amount of thought has gone into the book. ... Leslie Hogben has done an outstanding job to produce a book of this size in a uniform style with such a high standard of editing and typesetting. ... this is certainly a book to ask your library to order and maybe even to purchase yourself."-Nick Higham (University of Manchester) on his blog http://nickhigham.wordpress.com, March 2014
Praise for the First Edition:"... a valuable compendium of information on virtually all aspects of linear algebra and its applications. ...This is a Herculean labor of love on the editor's part, a successful effort that should be appreciated and applauded by anyone working and/or teaching in this important area of mathematics. ... Every library that supports mathematics and science departments should have this encyclopedic work on its shelves."
-Henry Ricardo, MAA Reviews, June 2007
"Without doubts, it will be of great help for everybody who needs linear algebra in his profession, or for instructors or students looking for concepts, results, or examples."
-H. Mitsch, Monatshefte fur Math, 2007
"This handbook covers all the major topics of linear algebra at both graduate and undergraduate level, as well as their applications and related software packages. The handbook will be without a doubt a valuable resource for anyone using linear algebra, i.e. basically for any mathematician."

Person
Leslie Hogben is the Dio Lewis Holl Chair in Applied Mathematics and Professor of Mathematics at Iowa State University (ISU), and the Associate Director for Diversity of the American Institute of Mathematics. She received her B.A. from Swarthmore College in 1974 and her Ph. D. in 1978 from Yale University under the direction of Nathan Jacobson. Although originally working in nonassociative algebras, in the mid-1990s, she changed her focus to linear algebra.
Dr. Hogben is the author of more than 60 research papers and particularly enjoys introducing students to mathematical research. She has or is advising three postdoctoral associates, 11 doctoral students, 12 master's students, and 30 undergraduate researchers. She is the co-director of the NSF-sponsored ISU Math REU and developed an early graduate research course for mathematics and applied mathematics graduate students at ISU.
Dr. Hogben is a frequent co-organizer of meetings, workshops, and special sessions/mini-symposia. She is the Secretary/Treasurer of the International Linear Algebra Society and an associate editor of the journals Linear Algebra and its Applications and Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra.
