This leading textbook for first courses in linear algebra comes from the hugely experienced MIT lecturer and author Gilbert Strang. The book's tried and tested approach is direct, offering practical explanations and examples, while showing the beauty and variety of the subject. Unlike most other linear algebra textbooks, the approach is not a repetitive drill. Instead it inspires an understanding of real mathematics. The book moves gradually and naturally from numbers to vectors to the four fundamental subspaces. This new edition includes challenge problems at the end of each section. Preview five complete sections at math.mit.edu/linearalgebra. Readers can also view freely available online videos of Gilbert Strang's 18.06 linear algebra course at MIT, via OpenCourseWare (ocw.mit.edu), that have been watched by over a million viewers. Also on the web (http://web.mit.edu/18.06/www/), readers will find years of MIT exam questions, MATLAB help files and problem sets to practise what they have learned.

Gilbert Strang received his Ph.D. from UCLA and since then he has taught at MIT. He has been a Sloan Fellow and a Fairchild Scholar and is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He is a Professor of Mathematics at MIT and an Honorary Fellow of Balliol College. Professor Strang has published eight textbooks. He received the von Neumann Medal of the US Association for Computational Mechanics, and the Henrici Prize for applied analysis. The first Su Buchin Prize from the International Congress of Industrial and Applied Mathematics, and the Haimo Prize from the Mathematical Association of America, were awarded for his contributions to teaching around the world.
Let me connect these special matrices A and S to calculus. The vector
x changes to a function x(t). The differences Ax become the derivative dx/ dt = bet). In
the inverse direction, the sum Sb becomes the integral of bet). (查看原文)
序言节选: Even a supercomputer doesn't want the inverse matrix: too slow. Inverses gives the simpliest formula x=A^(-1)b but not the top speed. And everyone must know that determinants are even slower-there is no way a linear algebra course should begin wi...

Gilbert Strang本尊非常友好~ 上一封邮件交流说似乎要出中文版了

深入浅出,学校里没学明白的现在终于懂了。

Gilbert的书和公开课拯救了我的数学!这辈子听过的最好的数学课(这是我第一次体验online courses) ! 向每个本科生强烈推荐自学这本教材!(又是dumb down的教材=_=)

oddly, 比MIT校内作业考试更像习题的东西, 是我为了没解释清楚的结论自己推的证明. 虽然很快会忘记.

"SVD is the climax of this linear algebra course". =================================== 只看书不刷题是不会有多大提高的...
