New edition extensively revised and updated
Covers new topics such as product spaces, quotient spaces, and dual spaces
Features new visually appealing format for both print and electronic versions
Includes almost three times the number of exercises as the previous edition
This best-selling textbook for a second course in linear algebra is aimed at undergrad math majors and graduate students. The novel approach taken here banishes determinants to the end of the book. The text focuses on the central goal of linear algebra: understanding the structure of linear operators on finite-dimensional vector spaces. The author has taken unusual care to motivate concepts and to simplify proofs. A variety of interesting exercises in each chapter helps students understand and manipulate the objects of linear algebra.
The third edition contains major improvements and revisions throughout the book. More than 300 new exercises have been added since the previous edition. Many new examples have been added to illustrate the key ideas of linear algebra. New topics covered in the book include product spaces, quotient spaces, and dual spaces. Beautiful new formatting creates pages with an unusually pleasant appearance in both print and electronic versions.
No prerequisites are assumed other than the usual demand for suitable mathematical maturity. Thus the text starts by discussing vector spaces, linear independence, span, basis, and dimension. The book then deals with linear maps, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors. Inner-product spaces are introduced, leading to the finite-dimensional spectral theorem and its consequences. Generalized eigenvectors are then used to provide insight into the structure of a linear operator.
From reviews of previous editions:
“… a didactic masterpiece”
—Zentralblatt MATH
“… a tour de force in the service of simplicity and clarity … The most original linear algebra book to appear in years, it certainly belongs in every undergraduate library.”
—CHOICE
The determinant-free proofs are elegant and intuitive.
—American Mathematical Monthly
“Clarity through examples is emphasized … the text is ideal for class exercises … I congratulate the author and the publisher for a well-produced textbook on linear algebra.”
—Mathematical Reviews
Sheldon Axler is Dean of the College of Science & Engineering at San Francisco State University. He has authored many well-received books including Precalculus: A Prelude to Calculus, Algebra & Trigonometry, College Algebra, A Glimpse at Hilbert Space Operators, Harmonic Function Theory, and Holomorphic Spaces.
首先要声明的是,这本书可以说是一本介于工科线性代数与数学系高等代数之间的书。换句话说,这本书是一本单纯介绍线性映射的书,几乎不涉及到任何具体的“矩阵运算”问题。这本书和工科的线性代数加起来,基本上就构成了数学系的高等代数的内容(可能还是比数学系的内容少)。...
评分Linear Algebra Done Right的名声实在太大了,作者本人对此书也是信心满满,从“Done Right”的命名到所谓的“一页要看一小时”的论调,都使此书充满了网红感。实际上,自然有一页看一小时的书,但Axler这本书远远排不上号。 这本书一般被推荐为线性代数的Second Course,似乎F...

评分这本书从一开始就在云端筑屋 吾等凡辈找不着梯子啊找不着梯子~ 于是看到第二章后再也坚持不住 去看 David C. Lay 的 Linear Algebra and Its Applications了 呵呵 等忙完了这阵再回来看
评分以下内容是初读此书时写的,有些内容经过一段时间的学习发现许多并不准确,但也不想修改。此书在数学的学习中只能是基础中的基础(找professor时候说我认真学完了这本书他鄙视了一番,you should read xxxx, not liike Sheldon Axler),属于那种数学领域的入门级读物,要是真...

评分慕名而来,看了后认为这本书不适合工科生看,而是专门给数学系的学生看得。 书的内容结构是从最基本定义、概念开始,通过一步一步的逻辑推理产生各个定理和线性代数一系列的性质,有点类似于几何原本的叙述结构。 对于数学极差的我来说,前7章还算可以勉强看的懂,后面几章大量符号、概念、定理都揉杂在一起(这些应该是这本书的高潮)就基本蒙了,也就导致自己匆匆略过了,也没有耐心看下去了
评分时至今日,终于看懂了!
评分对比了第三版和第二版的第五章,第三版易读多了 didn't enjoy it as much as I expected. found<linear algebra with geometric applications by larry mansfield> in library instead. the latter structures in a way more comprehensive and straightforward, at least for me.
评分网络上有很多人把这本书给初学者推荐,我不知道你们究竟读没读过,尤其资质差的初学者,应该连第一章里的很多例子给想不明白。
