4th Edition printed by Brooks Cole India. Same content as the hardcover version. Pages are printed in black and white. Review: The Eigenbook - What a powerful, clear introduction to Linear Algebra! Since the field was completed long before this book was published (although important generalizations have been made, they are far above the level of this course), it is as good as the current edition for reference, at a tiny fraction of the cost. Examples are insightful and numerous - exposition is even better. Strang reminds the student where Linear Algebra fits in the big picture and does so with the brilliance of Feynman. The only exception is for computer scientists, who will find that the examples are quite dated. However, a bright programmer will be able to adapt the programming examples pretty easily, since Strang has such excellent exposition. Buy the book your instructor assigns for the class, sell it back and buy this for your library. Review: Great linear algebra book - Great book for anyone who wants to learn linear algebra from ground up.

Excellent insights, but not optimzed for learning
The book has many good insights, but not organized in a the best way for a student to learn the material.

every engineering or math degree should include this course
this book covers more useful aspects of linear algebra than the course I had in college.

Best by the best
Gilbert Strang has defined the modern teaching of Linear Algebra. This book and his "Introduction to Linear Algebra" should be taught to engineering majors even before Calculus

A well-written and useful text.
This is a well-written text. I also have a first edition, which was excellent, yet Strang has improved the clarity with every edition. If you solve every example, you will be well-prepared for anything that your math department throws at you.

Great price for the book
Great price for the book. Just be aware that this the problem are not in the correct order. So you'd have to search for a pdf version to compare which questions you should actually be doing for homework. No other complaints - 5 stars!

Buon compromesso
Opto per l'indian edition del libro per la sua convenienza. La qualità delle pagine non è il massimo (si vedono le parole della pagina dietro a volte) ma alla fine il suo dovere lo fa. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Unica pecca spedizione lenta.

Absolute excellent book
It is an excellent book! It is concise, nevertheless all the needed explanations are given. It is very very well written book. Some examples are revisited throughout the book to understand different perspectives. The problems at the end of the book are diverse, and the answers at the end of the book are good. One of the best book I have ever read. Coupled with the lectures provided online, it makes for a perfect course. I loved it, am almost done with it, and feel I learned a lot.
