Can anyone recommend some further reading for me in advanced mathematics?

I'm thinking of taking an open university course in Natural Sciences. This course will encompass everything to do with scientific study including physics, biology, chemistry, geology, astronomy etc. In my second and third year, I'll be able to specialise my study into one of the above areas. At the moment I am thinking of astronomy.

There are no prerequisites that I need to adhere to before I can go on the course, they are accepting anybody who is fairly competent at mathematics and science.

I think that it would be advantageous for me to do some extra reading on my maths since I haven't done it for so long. Can any one recommend some further reading that I can do to help brush up on my maths??

In particular I need geometry, calculus and linear algebra. Preferably an idiots guide to this subjects since two of them I have never encountered before?

Hope you can help.

It's gotten a lot of high praises for quality. I'm working my way through it myself for a similar purpose as yours, i.e. I need to refresh my memory on all the mathematics classes I've had before taking on something more serious.
