This isn't free, but you should buy a copy of "Selected Tutorial
Notes" from Wolfram Research.  There is about an 80-page article
about the numerical functions (NIntegrate, NSum, FindRoot, etc).
Plus many other interesting articles.  Money well spent.

You may be able to find individual articles by searching MathSource.
