2.0 out of 5 stars Good for more practice but some irritating flaws, May 24, 2000

JOSEPH M JAGELLA (Williamsport, PA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Beginning Linear Algebra (Paperback)

I've used many Schaum's books before, and most of them were very good because they were well written and explained concepts and techniques clearly. "Beginning Linear Algebra," however, was not as good as most of the other books in the series. It suffers from long chapter outlines, poor explanations, and many errors both in the explanations and answers to problems. Nevertheless, this book does provide a lot of good practice problems with answers. So I would recommend this book as a supplement to a regular text and not as a primary source of information about linear algebra.

Anyone who wants to learn linear algebra can do it alone with this book if they have a good grasp of ordinary algebra. I think it should be a prerequisite for any course in differential equations.

I ordered this book to use along with my text. It made the course much easier to understand. This book is the only reason I made a B in linear algebra. I just ordered the other books to use for abstract algebra and probability also. Buy it!
