New edition includes extensive revisions of the material on finite groups and Galois Theory. New problems added throughout.

Accessible to undergraduates yet its scope and depth also make it ideal for courses at the graduate level. Over 1500 exercises, many with multiple parts, ranging in scope from routine to fairly sophisticated, and ranging in purpose from basic application of text material to exploration of important theoretical or computational techniques. The structure of the book permits ins...(展开全部)

This text for a second course in linear algebra, aimed at math majors and graduates, adopts a novel approach by banishing determinants to the end of the book and focusing on understanding the structure of linear operators on vector spaces. The author has taken unusual care to motivate concepts and to simplify proofs. For example, the book presents - without having defined deter...(展开全部)
