The renowned mathematician and educator Gilbert Strang presents a
collection of expository papers on the theory and applications of
linear algebra, accompanied by video lectures on http:
//ocw.mit.edu. The essays are diverse in scope and range from
purely theoretical studies on deep fundamental principles of matrix
algebra to discussions on the teaching of calculus and an
examination of the mathematical foundations of aspects of
computational engineering. One thing these essays have in common is
the way that they express both the importance and the beauty of the
subject, as well as the author's passion for mathematics. This text
will be of practical use to students and researchers across a whole
spectrum of numerate disciplines. Furthermore, this collection
provides a unique perspective on mathematics and the communication
thereof as a human endeavour, complemented as these essays are by
commentary from the author regarding their provenance and the
reaction to them
