Clifford (geometric) algebras with applications to physics, mathematics, and engineering
by William E. Baylis
- 3 Want to read
Leading authorities in the emerging field of Clifford (geometric) algebras have contributed to this fundamental and comprehensive text. The subject of Clifford algebras is presented here in efficient geometric language: common concepts in physics are clarified, united and extended in new and sometimes surprising directions. The text may well serve as a pedagogical tool for either self study or in courses at both the undergraduate and graduate level.
Bibliographies complete many chapters and an index covers the entire book. Those new to Clifford algebras may start by reading the Introduction, after which practically any set of chapters can be read independently of the others.
