The Manga Guide to Linear Algebra (Manga Guides) ペーパーバック – イラスト付き, 2012/6/5
Reiji wants two things in life: a black belt in karate and Misa, the girl of his dreams. Luckily, Misa's big brother is the captain of the university karate club and is ready to strike a deal: Reiji can join the club if he tutors Misa in linear algebra.
Follow along in The Manga Guide to Linear Algebra as Reiji takes Misa from the absolute basics of this tricky subject through mind-bending operations like performing linear transformations, calculating determinants, and finding eigenvectors and eigenvalues. With memorable examples like miniature golf games and karate tournaments, Reiji transforms abstract concepts into something concrete, understandable, and even fun.
As you follow Misa through her linear algebra crash course, you'll learn about:
- Basic vector and matrix operations such as addition, subtraction, and multiplication
- Linear dependence, independence, and bases
- Using Gaussian elimination to calculate inverse matrices
- Subspaces, dimension, and linear span
- Practical applications of linear algebra in fields like computer graphics, cryptography, and engineering
But Misa's brother may get more than he bargained for as sparks start to fly between student and tutor. Will Reiji end up with the girl—or just a pummeling from her oversized brother? Real math, real romance, and real action come together like never before in The Manga Guide to Linear Algebra.

5つ星のうち5.0 Descripción
Amazonで購入Un libro muy didáctico, con ejemplos geniales para emprender como para emplear como docente/instructor, da pequeños tropiezos para explicar unos temas pero bueno tampoco es una tarea fácil hacerlo. En general un excelente libro.

5つ星のうち5.0 Better than a university course.
Amazonで購入My girlfriend studies computer science. I study English (but I'm a hobbyist when it comes to compsci.) While she took her linear algebra course during first year, I bought this book and read it. She nearly failed the course. Me, on the other hand, learned pretty much everything there is to know about lin/alg. Not kidding. I tried problems from her curriculum and was able to solve them without too much difficulty, whereas she did.
Buy this book. It's worth it. I finished it in a day (basically the entire day, including checking online for problems that I could try solving.) Story is cute too, I love manga :)

5つ星のうち5.0 Manga style
Amazonで購入With this, I have 4 books in the Manga series and all of them are very good. Quick and easy to read. Gives concepts effectively and good for a machine learning practitioner. Linear algebra is quite interesting and this book makes it more.

5つ星のうち5.0 Goofy and Modest but Incredibly Lucid
Amazonで購入The preface of this book states that it is "meant as a complement to other, more comprehensive literature, not as a substitute." It would of course be wise of me to agree with this statement, but I'm tempted not to. I have my reasons.
I took Linear Algebra in college as part of my Computer Science curriculum. Having persisted through three semesters of Calculus by will power alone, and having heard horror stories about Linear Algebra, I duly invested the effort required to get a decent grade. With that hurdle behind me, thus completing my mathematics requirements, I focused the rest of my college thoughts exclusively on computers until the last residual matrix reduced to null in the outer reaches of my mind space. I was free!
But then the unexpected happened. Years later, firmly settled into my minimal-math computing career, an intermittent musing continued to flounder about in the back of my brain. "What is Linear Algebra? Why don't I feel like I learned anything?" I eventually realized that my course's extraordinary emphasis on crunching numbers, solving simplistic problems, and working out proofs had left a giant void in my conceptual understanding of the topic. If somebody had asked me at that time what Linear Algebra is and what it's good for, my response would have been a face slowly contorting into frustration.
When I stumbled upon The Manga Guide to Linear Algebra, I just knew I had to read it. In addition to the unabated glee that came from broadcasting such a ridiculous selection to my Goodreads comrades, I thought, "Maybe these Japanese cartoons can teach me what the university failed to?" If I learned a little bit about martial arts and love in the process, so be it.
This book exceeded my expectations. It's absurd and unassuming, and these two things combine to make it impossible to put down. I was knee deep in matrices before the "What the heck am I reading?" factor wore off. And to my delight, I found myself understanding matrix and vector algebra in a more intuitive way thanks to the book's highly visual presentation of darn near everything.
It's this latter point that makes the book so effective. It's a comic book about math. There are no rules. Whatever is proper in a math textbook - whether it's visual consistency, formal language, or being rigidly organized, compartmentalized, and sterilized - this is of no concern to Misa as she works around Reiji's karate schedule to tutor him on eigenvectors. There's no pressure for it to conform to comic book conventions, either. Every chapter concludes with several pages of math, sans the comic flair.
While this is not a substitute to "comprehensive literature," it may in fact be good enough to get the job done. The proof is in the purin. I've recently ventured into the 3D video game programming landscape, and I'm using vector and matrix math concepts to solve some fairly sophisticated problems of my own creation, a feat that would have been virtually impossible without the intuitive understanding I gleaned from this book.
So what is this book, then? To my mind, it's simply the most effective way to convey the conceptual framework of Linear Algebra. It's not a textbook. There are no homework problems. But, then again, cranking through problems with a pencil and paper won't necessarily get you any closer to understanding what it's all about. Besides, can't computers do that?
