W. Keith Nicholson Books

Taking a traditional approach to the subject of Linear Algebra, with some introduction for students to R^n, the Fourth Edition of Linear Algebra with Applications, newly acquired by McGraw-Hill, continues the tradition of accuracy and excellence associated with W. Keith Nicholson. Unlike the previous edition, however, the Fourth Edition introduces eigenvalues early on, in chapter 3, in a rigorous way using only matrix algebra and determinants. As well, Nicholson has added a new "bridging" chapter from Vector Geometry (Chapter 4) to the notion of an Abstract Vector Space (Chapter 6). In the traditional manner, Nicholson 4/e allows students to "hit the wall" with theory, but, with these new features, also provides students with the tools needed to overcome the wall.

Excerpt from The Bab Ballads: With Which Are Included Songs of a Savoyard Some seven years since, I collected the most popular of the songs and ballads which I had written for the series of light Operas with which my name is associated, and published them under the title Of Songs of a Savoyard. It recently occurred to me that these songs had so much in common with The Bab Ballads that it might be advisable to weld the two books into one. This is, briefly, the history of the present volume.
