Douglas Tooley et al.

If you have the stomach for it, be sure to put this on your bookshelf...

Snyder, John P. 1987. Map Projections- A Working Manual: U.S.G.S. 
Professional Paper 1395. US Government Printing Office.
Washington , D.C.

It is certainly an important work. It may still stand as definitive. Anyway, the mathematics are detailed and many examples are worked. UW Libraries may have multiple copies. Enjoy.
