Schaum's Outline of Linear Algebra (Schaum's Outlines) 5th Edition

There's a ton of "review/refresher materials for Linear algebra, which is becoming one of the more important topics for people in many areas of "data science", stats/probability and other quantitative disciplines. This is a broad survey of material, with about an average emphasis on determinants (covered in depth in chap 8 of 13).Highly recommended

I purchased this textbook. Yes, I know. I can be THAT nerd that purchases the book with intentions to keep it. Not always, but when it comes to math, I've got a long road (filled with potholes, the kind that will mess up your entire front end type of roads) ahead of me so I might as well keep it for reference. Now, to get to why I gave it 5 stars, appearance. The appearance was exactly as described and shipping was prompt. I would order from Amazon and this seller again.

Solid development of this important subject, many detailed examples.

It is written well. The explanations are fairly user friendly. There are several worked out examples in the text. Each section then has several problems with full worked out solutions. Then extra problems with bare-bones answers given. It is helpful for self-study. For students it may offer a different take or explanation method than their standard text. This is even more helpful to someone out in the field who has been away from formal schooling for a while.

Good for a brief reference, it would be a lot better with more examples.

I had used this text book, at first time in 1978, it still one of the best book of this matter.

Easy to understand to whom has studied high school algebra. Easy to follow examples step by step.

This book has so many errors! I spend half of my time trying to figure out if I made a mistake or if the author forgot/changed something. I would think twice before using this a study tool.
