Matrices: Methods and Applications

Matrix methods are an important part of the `tool kit' of applied mathematics, with applications in engineering and the physical, life, and social sciences. This wide-ranging textbook gives a lucid and up-to-date account of these methods, suitable for both undergraduates and more advanced students.

The approach is down to earth and results are illustrated with many examples drawn from the areas of application. The numerous exercises (with answers) make the book ideal for students taking a first or second course in the subject.
