Finkbeiner D. Introduction to Matrices and Linear Transform 1960 torrent

Textbook in PDF format

The obvious purpose of this book is to present a lucid and unified introduction to linear algebra at a level which can be understood by undergraduates who possess reasonable mathematical aptitude, and thus to lay a solid foundation from which each student can apply these notions and techniques to the field of his interest. A more subtle but equally serious objective is to prepare the student for advanced scientific work by developing his powers of abstract reasoning.
