    I like this book review! I enjoyed how you presented what you felt was left to be desired with this textbook, and did not just give us the generic "It's a bit more advanced," or "great for beginners." It really makes me feel more at home in the topics you're discussing, and I feel like I'm not being talked down to here.

    An excellent and fair minded review. Lang's texts were certainly idiosyncratic, but always enjoyable, of the very few I'm familiar with. I first learnt calculus from Lang's Basic Calculus, I enjoyed it very much, just the right amount of rigour when starting calculus. Please do continue with your reviews.

    That looks like an essential book to learn Linear Algebra.
    Your review is also fantastic.

    Just ordered Serge Lang's Linear Algebra from Amazon. Thanks for the clear screenshots and book review.

    It was a great review, I ended feeling that it was a good example of what a review should be.

    Please do a review of Sheldon Axler's "Linear Algebra Done Right" and/or Paul Halmos' "Finite Dimensional Vector Spaces"!

    • @blargoner

      Thanks for the suggestions! Both books are excellent but weird in their own ways, so they would make for interesting reviews.

      It would also be interesting to see a review of the upcoming 4th edition of Axler’s text.

      I was considering buying that book. However for now it's obviously demanding a bit more preparation and possibly I need to take an actually glance into it before deciding to dive into it.
      Thank you very much for that thorough but nonetheless inspiring video. I hope I can encourage you to do more book reviews of that kind. It's really helpful.

    Michael Spivak's calculus is one of the best mathematics books ever written. What a clarity and buildup man

  • @LukePower-zs5en

    This review was really great, thanks! What book would you recommend for an introduction to linear algebra?

  • @bsatyam
    @bsatyam 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Would you recommend this over Werner Greub's book for a first exposure?

    • @blargoner
      @blargoner  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Good question. As you might be able to tell from my other videos on linear algebra, I love Greub's books, but they require more mathematical maturity. So between the two I would probably recommend Lang for a first exposure.

  • @DiegoMathemagician

    That was a very good book review. Please, do more. Is Greub your favorite linear algebra book?

    Hi... What textbook would you suggest for a second linear algebra course? Thanks!

    • @lewessays
      @lewessays 17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Books by sheldon Axler or the one by Insel seems to be the standard out there.

    In my opinion the best linear algebra book is T.S. Blyth Module theory

    • @blargoner
