My book with Howard Elman and David Silvester

H.C. Elman, D.J. Silvester and A.J. Wathen,
`Finite Elements and Fast Iterative Solvers: with applications in incompressible fluid dynamics',
Oxford University Press, Oxford, 2005.

is available in both paperback and hardback. There is also a sample in PDF format.

David Silvester has also written a Finite Element Primer which provides a lower level entry point for finite element error analysis.
