This book is an introduction to linear algebra, designed as a textbook for upper-division courses. It includes the basic results on vector spaces over fields, determinants, the theory of single linear transformation, and inner product spaces. The text presents proofs of the main theorems and includes numerical examples and exercises; applications to geometry, group theory and differential equations are given.
