I would check out "An Introduction to Numerical Analysis" by Suli and Mayers or "Approximation Theory and Approximation Practice" by Trefethen. The former covers all the major intro numerical analysis topics in a format that is suitable for someone with ~undergrad math or engineering backgrounds. The latter goes deep into Chebyshev approximation (and some related topics). It is also very accessible but is much more specialized.
