From the Dust Jacket: "Divided into three parts, the book begins with a thorough development of the direct algebra and octic symmetry of matrices. The second part develops basic concepts of vector and tensor analysis. Aspects of vector analysis discussed include reciprocal lattices, curvilinear coordinate systems, transformations, covariance and contravariance. For tensor analysis, topics cover rank, dimensionality, transformations, quadratic forms, and diagonalization. The last section of the book treats applications to relativity, quantum mechanics, and elementary particle physics." . First Printing of the First Edition. Hard Cover.
