From those freebies it does appear dense. Is the whole book like that or just the condensed mini guides?

- ivan_ah 12y agoJust the freebies. The book(s) are less dense, but still get to the point. See http://minireference.com/static/excerpts/noBSguide_v5_preview.pdf http://minireference.com/static/excerpts/noBSguide_v5_previe... and http://cnd.mcgill.ca/~ivan/miniref/noBSguide2LA_preview.pdf http://cnd.mcgill.ca/~ivan/miniref/noBSguide2LA_preview.pdf for the book previews.
- Keyframe 12y agoVery nice! When do you expect LA book to be done?
- ivan_ah 12y agoI'd say beginning of the summer. Finishing the applications chapter has been a massive time sinkhole! I wanted to make a survey of all the cool things you can do once you have the tools of linear algebra under your belt, but it's proving to be too much (Chapter 8 is getting almost as long as the rest of the book). In the coming weeks I'll be going over the latest draft and I might do a scope-cut, in order to get it done more quickly. In summary I'd say end-of-April for "dev close" and then probably a month for the final editing with my editor, so June 1st for official release.
