hey can someone suggest me a linear algebra book which dwells into topics of vector spaces(linear) ?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Halmos - Finite-Dimensional Vector Spaces
Serge Lang - Linear Algebra
 
what are the best linear algebra books around?
 
Hoffman and Kunze
 
I feel compelled to mention Bamberg & Sternberg's A course in mathematics for students of physics.

However, linear algebra seems to be a subject that many professors like to write about. You will find many downloadable (meaning free as in beer) linear algebra texts on the web, that are the basis (no pun intended) for courses they're teaching.
