Techniques of matrix theory find wide application throughout engineering and the physical, life, and social sciences. Consequently, matrix methods comprise an important component in any "tool kit" of applied mathematics. This textbook provides an up-to-date account of these methods suitable for both undergraduates and more advanced students. The author's aim has been to provide a down-to-earch approach with results illustrated with many examples drawn from the areas of application. The range of topics covered is large: from basic matrix algebra to advanced concepts such as generalized inverses and Hadamard matrices, and applications to error-correcting codes, control theory and linear programming. Practicalities are borne in mind throughout and numerous exercises (with answers) will make the book ideal for students. Research workers too will benefit from the accessible accounts of advanced matrix techniques which they use.
