Introductory courses in Linear Algebra can be taught in a variety of ways and the order of topics offered may vary based on the needs of the students. Linear Algebra with Applications, Alternate Eighth Edition provides instructors with an additional presentation of course material. In this edition earlier chapters cover systems of linear equations, matrices, and determinants. The more abstract material on vector spaces starts later, in Chapter 4, with the introduction of the vector space Rn. This leads directly into general vector spaces and linear transformations. This alternate edition is especially appropriate for students preparing to apply linear equations and matrices in their own fields.

I read the 4th edition except the starred (optional) sections.
I am an economist and found little difficulty in reading this book. However, Chapter 7 is more difficult than the rest of the book, and I did not entirely understand the last example of Section 7.4.
The book contains errors, but I found them to be obvious. Maybe some of them are absent from the 5th edition.
I recommend this book to absolute beginners in linear algebra who have some experience with reading proofs.
