"The straight-forward clarity of the writing is admirable." -- American Mathematical Monthly.This work provides an elementary and easily readable account of linear algebra, in which the exposition is sufficiently simple to make it equally useful to readers whose principal interests lie in the fields of physics or technology. The account is self-contained, and the reader is not assumed to have any previous knowledge of linear algebra. Although its accessibility makes it suitable for non-mathematicians, Professor Mirsky's book is nevertheless a systematic and rigorous development of the subject.
Part I deals with determinants, vector spaces, matrices, linear equations, and the representation of linear operators by matrices. Part II begins with the introduction of the characteristic equation and goes on to discuss unitary matrices, linear groups, functions of matrices, and diagonal and triangular canonical forms. Part II is concerned with quadratic forms and related concepts. Applications to geometry are stressed throughout; and such topics as rotation, reduction of quadrics to principal axes, and classification of quadrics are treated in some detail. An account of most of the elementary inequalities arising in the theory of matrices is also included. Among the most valuable features of the book are the numerous examples and problems at the end of each chapter, carefully selected to clarify points made in the text.

Highly recommend
Scent: Unscented
I bought 3 different whipped tallow creams, and this is by far my favorite. It is fast absorbing not greasy at all. I am a cashier and handle a ton of cardboard daily, so my hands dry out fast. This has been a lifesaver for my hands! Will buy more and I highly recommend this product!

Nice cream. Non-greasy. Doesn't smell. Absorbs pretty quickly so not heavy.

Excema problem, you need to try this
Scent: Unscented
Best cream I ever used for my eczema. Using this twice a day makes a HUGE difference. It's lightweight, and better value than most beef tallow creams. Scent is ok. This stuff really softens my skin!!! You need a use for around a month to see best results.p

Wow! So moisturizing!
OMGosh, this feels so good on your lips! I just got this today so I’ll have to update if the moisture doesn’t last. But so far it feels nice.
I did have a slight issue with it melting onto itself in the one day it took to get to me. See photos. The tube itself was slightly concave because of the melting. But is still intact.
So far though I love this stuff!
