Linear Algebra in Context

This text combines a compact linear algebra course with a serious dip into various physical applications. It may be used as a primary text for a course in linear algebra or as a supplementary text for courses in applied math, scientific computation, mathematical physics, or engineering. The text is divided into two parts. Part 1 comprises a fairly standard presentation of linear algebra. Chapters 1–3 contain the core mathematical concepts typical for an introductory course while Chapter 4 contai
