Book recommendation for engineers

I'm a new Mathematica user and am looking for a good Mathematica 3.0
tutorial/reference book geared toward engineering. I've been using the
Kaufmann book "Mathematica as a Tool", which seems to be pretty good,
although not written for 3.0.  I am specifically interested in
"Mathematica for Scientists and Engineers" by Bahder.  I haven't seen
this one in local/university bookstores and was wondering if anyone who
has used it would care to give an opinion. Any other recommendations
would also be appreciated.
