, Halmos, Paul R., 1916-2006. Finite-dimensional vector spaces. Princeton, N.J., Van Nostrand, 1958, 2d edition, 200pp., very good gray cloth, BUT with pencil notations in margins on 5 pages, previous owner's name in ink. The University series in undergraduate mathematics. Substantial pencil comments at bottom of pages 120-121 8-lines.

HALMOS: Hungarian-born mathematician, Ph.D. University of Illinois 1938, became John von Neumann's assistant in 1940 and wrote his first book based on von Neumann's lectures. Taught at Syracuse, Chicago, and Michigan. …
