Fosters the concepts and skillsneeded for future careers
Linear
Algebra and ItsApplications offers a modern elementary introduction
with broad, relevantapplications. With traditional texts, the early
stages of the course arerelatively easy as material is presented in a
familiar, concrete setting, butstudents often hit a wall when abstract
concepts are introduced. Certainconcepts fundamental to the study of
linear algebra (such as linearindependence, vector space, and linear
transformations) require time toassimilate ― and students' understanding
of them is vital.
Lay,
Lay, and McDonald make theseconcepts more accessible by introducing
them early in a familiar, concrete ℝn setting, developing them
gradually, and returning to themthroughout the text so that students can
grasp them when they are discussed inthe abstract. The 6th Edition
offers exciting new material, examples,and online resources, along with
new topics, vignettes, and applications.
