Thermal book suggestions

Hi just looking for peoples opinions on good heat transfer books.

Ive got a good book on thermodynamics and it does contain some information on heat transfer mechanisms but im looking for a book that largely covers just heat transfer. Ideally a book that covers radiation in some depth.

Its for work and the application is extreme high altitude so the main heat transfer mechanism is radiation. The thermodynamics book i have doesnt really cover this at all.

Any suggestions....

Have a look at

Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer: Frank P Incropera and David P DeWitt: John Wiley & Sons Inc.

ISBN 0-471-51729-1

Seems to have about 100 pages of text and examples, not cheap IIRC so I would try a skek at it before buying online etc.

This was the must have thermody book for the Energy Engineering degree I took 15 years ago, wouldn't think radiation principles have changed much over that time.
