Which book would you recommend for Strenght of Materials for mechanincal engineering student. Please don't tell me book on the basis of problem sets. I have my book which contains numerous problems but I want a book which explains the concept form very basic to deep.

BTW how is the book by GH Rider.

I have a copy of Materials Science by Anderson et al (Chapman and Hall, 4th Ed) which is a handy reference - ISBN 978-0412341502.
