My favorite is Stan Mulaik "The foundations of factor analysis".
It is comprehensive and still straightforward from the introduction
to all covered themes. I have tried different others, but none
was like that. Not being educated mathematician I felt I got
most that I needed with a good insight of the principles.

One similar is from Dirk Revenstorf, but I doubt it is available
in english.
