    Engineering Mathematics by K.A. Stroud is a pretty much standard book for engineering courses - there's also an Advanced Engineering Mathematic by the same authour.

    You should be able to pick it up in most second hand college bookshops.

    *edit*

    Another text we used was Advanced Engineering Mathematics by Erwin Kreyszig - it can be a pretty daunting text at times but worth a flick through.
