The book Introduction to Linear Algebra and its Applications is the most recent edition of the homonymous textbook by Howard Anton and Chris Rorres, enriched with representative applications from various scientific fields such as business administration, economics, engineering sciences, computer science, and the physical sciences. The textbook offers a well-structured introductory presentation of Linear Algebra, suitable for undergraduate courses. The authors present the basic principles in a clear and direct manner, demonstrating that Linear Algebra is both a unified subject and not just a collection of isolated definitions and techniques, and also an essential tool for addressing real-life problems.

The structure of the book follows the classical approach of theory-examples-exercises, but at the end of each section, there is a review of the main concepts and true-false questions are provided to clarify the finer points of the theory, while answers to most exercises are provided at the end. The textbook is a valuable aid for students in the physical sciences, engineering schools, and computer science, business administration, economics, as well as agricultural schools.
