Jun 19, 2010 at 22:36 | comment | added | The Mathemagician | Look at the exposition of Jordan canonical forms in both Charles Curtis' LINEAR ALGEBRA:AN INTRODUCTORY APPROACH and in Anthony Knapp's BASIC ALGEBRA,Dan. I think you'll find both superior to H&K. H & K is just too abstract to be helpful long-term for most math majors-although,to be honest,the possibility of a course based on the union of H&K and Gilbert Strang's book has always intrigued me. | |
