Book Summary of Linear Algebra A Geometric Approach

This clear, concise and highly readable text is designed for a first course in linear algebra and 
is intended for undergraduate courses in mathematics. It focusses throughout on geometric 
explanations to make the student perceive that linear algebra is nothing but analytic geometry
 of n dimensions. From the very start, linear algebra is presented as an extension of the theory
 of simultaneous linear equations and their geometric interpretation is shown to be a recurring
 theme of the subject. The integration of abstract algebraic concepts with the underlying 
geometric notions is one of the most distinguishing features of this book—designed to help 
students in the pursuit of multi-variable calculus and differential geometry in subsequent courses. 
Explanations and concepts are logically presented in a conversational tone and well-constructed
 writing style so that students at a variety of levels can understand the material and acquire a
 solid foundation in the basic skills of linear algebra.
