   I'm probably not the right one to be posting a response to this,
but I have time, so why not?  There's Design and Analysis of
Algorithms by Aho, Hopcroft, and, Ullman.  It reads OK.  Usually
taught in a computer science class.  Requires some background
(a little set theory, etc).  There's a book called Algorithmics.
Not as much on specific algorithms, but talks about it at
a general level.  Appears to be geared to non-CS folks.  There's
a new book called Introduction to Algorithms or Algorithms
(can't remember which), and the only author I recall is Rivest
(there are three).   This may be the book to get.  It's new,
and chock full of algorithms.  Nice pictures too.
