Linear Algebra Book for Beginners: Elementary Linear Algebra by Howard Anton

In this video I go over a book on linear algebra that is really good for beginners. If you are trying to learn linear algebra this is probably one the best books out there because it is much easier to read than many of the other linear algebra books. Honestly it is hard to find a linear algebra book that is just amazing. This one really sticks out from the others in the sense that it is good for beginners.

I have reviewed other linear algebra books and many other math books. Check out my other reviews here,

The book is called Elementary Linear Algebra and it was written by Howard Anton.

I used this book in 1982-3 and thought it very good. We used Anton's Calculus book as well. Both were excellent. And I still have and use them! :)

I wonder when that 3rd edition was published haha. I studied out of the 11th edition like 5 or 6 years ago. The applications version of the 11th edition has a whole chapter going over 20 different applications of linear algebra! Toward the end of the semester, my teacher had students choose an application (or section of the book we didn't cover in class) to present as a project. Fun times.

Yup, this is good first book for linear algebra. Two other ones I like are "Linear Algebra and It's Applications" by David C. Lay and "Linear Algebra: A Modern Introduction" by David Poole. A good differential equations/linear algebra hybrid is "Differential Equations & Linear Algebra" by Stephen W. Goode.

I have a math book collection too so your book review videos are a boon. Thank you MS

Thanks for the recommendation. I am currently reading "No Bullshit Guide To Linear Algebra." After that I will begin the all famous "Linear Algebra Done Right!"

After watching one of your videos, I picked up the 7th edition hardcover of this book today. It's great that archive has the student solution manual to select editions for people that want to check their answers.

Anton's book is the reason I passed linear. The professor and book I had assigned for the class was terrible. Anton did a great job and had the best examples. I had a friend that failed linear like twice, I let him borrow my Anton book and he managed to get through it.

Wow, that was my textbook a very long time ago. The professor often said, "where there's confusion, there's no mathematics". Maybe I'll buy this textbook again.

I just realized that I have this book in my bookcase.

[azimuth]

This is just what I needed, thank you!

I went to a used book store and found a copy of a second edition.
I just started reading it but so far it's really easy to pick up.

I have this book!!!! Well the 11th edition😅

[bigshaqsmathematicalinstit]

I love your channel so much! I don’t know why...lol

[alizaovadia]

I have the fourth edition, it’s great.

[stutteringcris]

How does this compare, in terms of comprehension, compared to, say, any "Algebra for Dummies" book?

[beophobic]

The newer editions of this book are more extensive and better organized in terms of the actual material. I have the 12th edition and it covers way more information.

[eswyatt]

What do you think of Anton's calculus book?

[MSanaa]

I need the 11th edition lectures plz someone help me

I’m so worry about my studies

[ivannbesti]

Hi! Is it good if I have this 11th application version of this book? Thank in advance.
