When Charles Wiley first opened his small printing shop in lower Manhattan in 1807. it was a generation of boundless potential searching for an identity. And we were there, helping to define a new American literary tradition. Over half a century later, in the midst of the Second Industrial Revolution, it was a generation focused on building the future. Once again, we were there, supplying the critical scientific, technical, and engineering knowledge that helped frame the world. Throughout the 20th Century, and into the new millennium, nations began to reach out beyond their own borders and a new international community was born. Wiley was there, expanding its operations around the world to enable a global exchange of ideas, opinions, and know-how. For 200 years, Wiley has been an integral part of each generation's journey, enabling the flow of information and understanding necessary to meet their needs and fulfill their aspirations. Today, bold new technologies are changing the way we live and learn. Wiley will be there, providing you the must-have knowledge you need to imagine new worlds, new possibilities, and new opportunities. Generations come and go, but you can always count on Wiley to provide you the knowledge you need, when and where you need it! WILLIAM J.

Numerical Range 367 Index ,373 Preface The outlook of this second edition is the same as that of the original: to present linear algebra as the theory and practice of linear spaces and linear mappings. Where it aids understanding and calculations, I don't hesitate to describe vectors as arrays of numbers and to describe mappings as matrices. Render onto Caesar the things which are Caesar's. If you can reduce a mathematical problem to a problem in linear algebra, you can most likely solve it, provided that you know enough linear algebra. Therefore, a thorough grounding in linear algebra is highly desirable. A sound undergraduate education should offer a second course on the subject, at the senior level. I wrote this book as a suitable text for such a course. The changes made in this second edition are partly to make it more suitable as a text. Terse descriptions, especially in the early chapters, were expanded, more problems were added, and a list of solutions to selected problems has been provided. In addition, quite a bit of new material has been added, such as the compactness of the unit ball as a criterion of finite dimensionality of a normed linear space. A new chapter discusses the QR algorithm for finding the eigenvalues of a self-adjoint matrix. The Householder algorithm for turning such matrices into tridiagonal form is presented. I describe in some detail the beautiful observation of Deift, Nanda, and Tomei of the analogy between
