The textbook [https://cosmathclub.files.wordpress.com/2014/10/georgi-shilov-linear-algebra4.pdf '''''Linear Algebra'''''] by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgiy_Shilov Georgi Shilov] thoroughly covers all major aspects of linear algebra, in addition it covers more geometrically motivated linear algebra in the latter half.

This text can be viewed as an introduction to reading mathematics texts; The initial proofs are on arithmetic and properties of linear equations, and are more approachable than the manipulations of functions typical of analysis texts. It is difficult to overstate the universal importance of this subject, but it can be seen through reading. Linear algebra is the basis of all quantities of interest in physics, geometry, number theory, and the same techniques appear in engineering disciplines through physics, numerical computing, or machine learning.
Β 
Another similarly famous Russian text on linear algebra would be [https://www.math.mcgill.ca/darmon/courses/19-20/algebra2/manin.pdf Kostrikin and Manin's Linear Algebra and Geometry] but better as a second casual read since it is more advanced. It contains more information about the interaction between linear algebra and quantum mechanics and relativity, and classcial projective geometry such as the Hopf fibration and PlΓΌcker coordinates. Projective geometries are treated concretely here, but are eventually characterized much more abstractly and generally in algebraic topology.
