This text and reference applies matrix ideas to vector methods, using physical ideas to illustrate and motivate mathematical concepts but employing a mathematical continuity of development rather than a physical approach. Features approximately 50 problems at each chapter's end as well as 25 exercises. Answers are given to selected questions. 1963 edition. Includes 121 figures. Unabridged republication of the edition published by McGraw-Hill, Inc., New York, 1963.
