Hamming is great in general. Some years ago, I picked up a copy of "Numerical Methods for Scientists and Engineers" for like $2 at a used book store. I had no idea who Hamming was, but it was cheap so I bought it.

After the first chapter I thought, "this guy is pretty sharp let's see what else he's written." That is when I found "You and Your Research".

All of Hamming's books are Great. Most are available from Dover Publications for cheap. In particular; checkout his

* Methods of Mathematics Applied to Calculus, Probability, and Statistics.

* The Art of Probability.
