Product Description
Review
'There seems little doubt that the book will become a standard reference for research workers in numerical mathematics.' Computing Reviews 'The reviewer strongly recommends that those working in either pure or applied linear algebra have this book on their desks.' SIAM Review 'This will doubtless be the standard text for years to come.' American Scientists 'On the whole the authors have done an excellent job of supplying linear algebraists and applied mathematicians with a well-organized comprehensive survey, which can serve both as a text and as a reference. The reviewer recommends that everyone working in these fields have this book on his/her desk.' Linear Algebra and its Applications

Format:Paperback
This excellent book covers matrix analysis accompanying the reader from the first steps in this field to moderately advanced material. It is directed towards mathematics applied to science and can be used both for teaching and as a reference. It has 9 self-contained chapters completed with many exercises but, unfortunately, do not contain the solutions. The proofs of the results are crystal clear, as is the language in general.

Excellent book.... for the initiated
9 July 2000
Format:Paperback
Horn and Johnson has written an excellent reference book on somewhat-advanced linear algebra (from the point of view of an engineer). There's a lot of treasures in this book, but this book is NOT for beginning linear algebra. Rather, it is written as a handy reference to review and learn certain topics in linear algebra.
Nonetheless, I really like their take on linear algebra. They motivate you in every subject and problem (for example, the relations between eigenvectors, eigenvalues, and optimization problems). These insights are invaluable and definitely worth the admission price.
Together with Golub and Van Loan's "Matrix Computations", this is THE linear algebra book to get, although only if you're sufficiently initiated.

The most comprehensive and up-to-date reference/textbook.
29 Mar 2000
Format:Paperback
If you need to know anything about matrices - this is the book. It cover all the basic theory. Perfect for graduate-level courses. The book also has lots of material relevant to optimization theory and can be used in Operations Research courses. One of the nice features is a comprehensive index that makes the book a perfect reference source. Nicely written and easy to read.

An encyclopedic reference for matrix analysis and linear alg
27 Aug 2000
Format:Paperback
Horn and Johnson's MATRIX ANALYSIS is simply a masterpiece. You can find each and every result in matrix analysis along with it's proof in this book. Look at their companion volume "Topics in Matrix Analysis" too. Some of these results cannot be found elsewhere.
