No-bullshit guide to linear algebra
I don't know how Matrix computations wasn't mentioned. When it comes to practical implementations of linear algebra concepts this book is your best friend. [1] http://www.amazon.com/Computations-Hopkins-Studies-Mathemati...

Surprises from numerical linear algebra (2010)
Wow. No one has mentioned the gospel according to Golub:http://www.amazon.com/Computations-Hopkins-Studies-Mathemati...
This is the "how we wrote Lapack" book.
⬐ alxvYes, Golub/van Loan is the bible. But Walkins's "Fundamentals of Matrix Computations" (http://www.amazon.com/o/asin/0470528338/) is much more accessible to self-learners.For those who are just starting on this subject, I highly recommend that you rework the proofs for the bounds between the various matrix norms [1]. These bounds are the building blocks for most interesting analyses in matrix computations. And understanding these analyses are essential if you want to know which algorithm will work best for your problems.
