Is this available in an off-line bundle? I am becoming increasing wary of online books/training/applications that can not be read locally. If I am going to take the time to read through a full book (possibly weeks of reading) I want to be able to use/reference it in 5 years like my paper books.
most of the value of a good math book is that years after reading it you can use it as a reference to look things up you will inevitably forget.
- thaumasiotes 11y agoWhile I don't disagree with your comment, I think once you've learned this material you could reasonably look it up in a different book. Put another way, going through this course might greatly increase the value (to you personally) of having any other linear algebra text available. It's not necessary to look things up in the same textbook you learned them from.
- generic_user 11y agoThis issue has come up with MOOCS also. If you look at the MOOC sites they offer there class content including videos as downloads. Even tho most of the MOOCS are introductory courses and you probably would need to get a good book to go along with them lots of people were requesting downloads of the content. There is a variety of reasons why people want off-line bundles. Its just something I have gotten use to with this sort of content.
