CRC Press, 2001. - 823 pages.
A great textbook for a first course in Numerical Methods as it gives an extensive yet detailed coverage of numerical techniques that form the base for more advanced work in CFD. This book is based almost entirely on the finite difference method for solving differential equations (ordinary and partial). A chapter addresses finite element techniques but it is in the spirit of a primer; you will need a textbook solely devoted to FEM. This book is primarily for the mechanical engineer, as most of the goveing equations are invariably from the areas of heat transfer, fluid flow, gas dynamics and solid mechanics.
