Interesting books to read to support Aerospace Engineering courses

Hi TSR!

I'm currently searching for something to read within my spare time, preferably on the topic of Astronautical Engineering - but unfortunately, I can't find anything that would be suitable for general reading (not something that's very maths-y and more-so theory).

So, do any of you have any recommendations?

Thanks!

Ps. Sorry admins if I posted this in the wrong area!

What Engineers Know and How They Know it:

I haven't read it all, but it is a generally highly recommended book, it's based on the aerospace industry, and I it's on the Cambridge reading list:

Understanding flight is a good one! Not very much maths at all and plenty of flight theory if you’re into anything plane related (it’s on the cam recommended list)
