DESCRIPTION:
"The best mathematical textbook ever written" according to A Customer. I studied this book for two semesters as a doctoral student, and consider it the best mathematical textbook ever written. Luenberger writes concisely and with great clarity and elegance. His notation is crisp and easy to follow. The book begins with basic concepts of matrix algebra and dynamic equations, and then builds step-by-step to encompass an enormously broad set of applications. The examples are drawn from all over the map, and are great fun to explore. This is a truly mind-expanding text.Thomas P. Lyon, Associate Professor, Business Economics and Public Policy, Indiana University. M. Henri De Feraudy said A beautiful book. David Luenberger has a very polished writing style, so much so I could imagine he could be entrusted to write the country's constitution.This is one of the reasons I am drawn back to this book. Another great aspect of this book is the motivation for the mathematics, you never wonder why this or that was introduced. There are varied examples that come up and get dealt with several times in this book. In other words this builds up your intuition.However you have to realise that this is not a reference book, it's a book that has to be read from start to finish and the reader has to go with th. A solid grounding in the basic modeling tools Foster Morrison This book provides an excellent way to learn linear algebra by using it to derive the properties of linear dynamic systems. It also includes a good introduction to nonlinear systems and control theory. There are many classic examples and a wealth of challenging exercises. My first exposure to it was auditing Prof. Luenberger's course as a Visiting Scholar (NOAA fellow) at Stanford in 1977. At that time the book was still in the developmental stage as mimeographed notes. What it does not cover is statistics and especially the nonlinear regression needed to adjust dynamical models to fit dat
