I agree with GTE; I think the Houghton and Carpenter book would be well suited to your needs. It was a standard text book when I was doing my Aero Eng degree 20 years ago.
Was using it to prepare some notes on Thursday when I found a mistake in it! The ISA model is completely wrong above above about 65,000ft.

Mind you, that's my 1987 edition, must see if the error is still in the latest.
