A math book to keep always with you

In summary, the conversation is about a person's search for a book or series of books that can serve as a quick reference for their studies in computer engineering and embedded systems. They are specifically looking for resources on circuits, electronics, signal processing, differential equations, integrals, Fourier/Laplace transforms, and random variables. Another person suggests Erwin Kreyszig's book on advanced engineering mathematics, which the original person finds to have everything they need. The book can be found for a cheaper price on certain websites.

Hey guys!

Does exist a book/series of books that can be used as a fast reference when in need?

I study computer engineering, but I'm now moving my interest towards embedded systems and I have to study again circuits, electronic, signal processing etc.
I would like to have at hand knowledge about differential equation, integral, fourier/laplace transforms, random variables, and all those theorems related.
Of course I'm not interested in math-table (those filled only with formulas and nothing else), they're too much condensed and things aren't explained at all. But at the same time I don't need proofs or philosophical detours.

Any idea?

Thank you very much!
