SonOfLilit on Dec 14, My test for linear algebra books is how they first present matrices and matrix multiplication. If they define a matrix as an NxM table of numbers with a multiplication operation defined as this complicated formula with a couple of nested sigmas, and then much later a lemma is mentioned that says every linear transformation can be represented as a matrix and then the composition of two transforms is the matrix multiplication of their matrix forms, I throw the book away in disgust. I throw most books away in disgust. This is the second book I've seen that does it right, but unlike the other one [1] this one wraps the very correct presentation of matrices in so much technical language and such a boring cover story that I almost threw it away in disgust anyway. My greatest wish in STEM education is that we teach linear algebra better.
