“The present volume is the second in the author's series of
three dealing with abstract algebra. For an understanding of
this volume a certain familiarity with the basic concepts treated
in Volume I: groups, rings, fields, homomorphisms, is presup-
presupposed. However, we have tried to make this account of linear
algebra independent of a detailed knowledge of our first volume.
References to specific results are given occasionally but some of
the fundamental concepts needed have been treated again. In
short, it is hoped that this volume can be read with complete
understanding by any student who is mathematically sufficiently
mature and who has a familiarity with the standard notions of
modern algebra. ”
