Publisher's Synopsis
This text takes an emerging approach to physics, emphasizing important geometrical structures that lay the foundations of much of modern theory. The subject of Clifford algebras is presented in efficient geometric language - common concepts in physics are clarified, united and extended. The text serves as a pedgogical tool for either self-study or in undergraduate/graduate courses. Topics covered include: history of teaching algebras; linear algebra; gravity; spinors; applications in engineering; spacetime algebra and line geometry; and Clifford algebra with Maple.
