Very clear text, lots of useful figures, examples and exercises. I was pleasantly surprised by its high quality. If the author could only write a similar text on linear algebra!</p> This is actually a pretty good book. Very clear text, lots of useful figures, examples and exercises.

There’s also a ZIP file (7.5 mb) which I believe contains this HTML file, and a folder with all the images:
