well, i think this is the best book about finite element method, since the first time i've read it,i understand all!!!

This book gave me experience to apply linear algebra extensively. It uses vectors to analyse nodes in structures. The vectors are calculated using matrix (Gauss Jordan etc.). If you are really good in programming, you can use this book as basic theory for writing optimation software.
