Shipment

I ordered my book on the 6th and it still hasn’t move an inch... I need this book by Monday and today is Sunday.. what kind of behavior is this???

Hold onto your copy

This is probably the most useful book I ever bought for college. Even though I thought I would never need it again, I really regret selling my copy too soon.

Thanks!

Thank you for sending the book. It was in very good condition, like you promised and I received the book much earlier than I originally had thought.

Santa Clara University's linear algebra text

This review is of the 2nd edition printed in '89. I bought this book off the shelf at SCU as a review source. The texts chosen at SCU have a tendency to lean toward the practical applications side and away from the theoretical. Johnson's text was no exception. Practical aspects of limitations of solution methods implimented on computers are discussed. A bit dry or lacking in motivation but otherwise a good coverage of the subject matter with answers to odd numbered problems at the back. My only real criticism of the text was the authors' tendency to introduce some important concepts in the problem sets themselves rather than covering them in the main body of the chapter. This is awkward if you want to use the book as a reference.
