Linear Algebra is a beautiful subject.

For a lot of students Linear Algebra is a difficult subject to learn. I was no exception. However, this book introduced the subject matter to me in very clear, easy to get and precise way. Logically presented theory in this book makes the subject simple and understandable. The immediate practical applications of the theorems to real life problems provide a meaningful perspective for the students. Detailed solutions in Maple teach you how to invoke Maple functions to solve Linear Algebra problems. Thus you get three books in one: Linear Algebra theory, Linear Algebra examples and solutions, and instructions on how to use Maple. Working in data analysis it was nice to be able to have this book as a reference (especially the SVD part) - simple, fast, and reliable. On top of it, this book has helped me to understand the concepts for other classes (Probability and Statistics - Linear Regression Analysis), Functional Analysis (Linear Functional and Transformations), Topology (Topological Spaces, Bases). I would definitely recommend this book to students who are just starting to learn Linear Algebra, as well as to those who have difficulty understanding the main concepts of this beautiful subject. And believe it or not, it is really easy to learn Linear Algebra from this book!
