Oh shit, I'm about to buy pic related, am I doing the right thing? I wanna learn true Linear Algebra and not the computational shit they taught me in college, I'm just one click away from buying it, redpill me fast friends.

only buy it if you want to keep it in your physical collection or something, which I would understand because it truly is an elegant treatement of the material. If you want even more material with rigor, try linear algebra done wrong by that russian guy. Overall beautiful book and it stands out from all the rest. 10/10

But.. LADR is exactly that? The only natural way to talk about half of linear algebra is through exterior algebra and Axler, of course, doesn't cover it at all, doesn't about the volume form or Hodge star, either.

It's an alright book for everyone but a pure mathematician/theoretical physicist.

Yeah linear algebra is kinda tricky. Not everyone can learn it by reading the book by themselves. I just finished it and it was fun. Matrices are long and tedious though. Don't give up

Kinda true there is still a lot of logic and "astuces" that are easier to get with a teacher bc well you'll always have questions.

Im gonna save everyone in this thread a lot of money. If you want the intuition behind linear algebra, not the computational stuff, look up 3blue1brown on youtube
