Jim's Review
🐛
Axler had the audacity to teach linear algebra without determinants — and it WORKS brilliantly. Expect an "aha!" moment when eigenvectors suddenly make sense because of how this book builds up the theory. It's clean, it's elegant, and the exercises are perfectly calibrated. If your intro linear algebra class left you confused, this book will fix that. Four worms — the right way to do it.
